We're working on an exciting new project -- a documentary film about you! It has been a brutal year in many ways, but there are also many stories of hope, strength and gratitude. And we think people would love to hear them 100 years from now. Follow our documentary page Hindsight: 2020 Documentary and share it with your friends.

Looking for a knock-it-out-of-the-park gift for parents or grandparents this year? How about a beautiful custom ancestor chart? You provide the names and dates, and we'll create a family heirloom.

Deadline for ordering for Dec. 23 pickup in Amherst is Dec. 14. Order yours here: https://jiggity.ca//pe/ancestor-and-genealogy-family-tree/
