Merry Christmas from Karen’s Chatt!
Merry Christmas from Karen’s Chatt!
I love old postcards and below are a couple old Christmas post cards that were given to Wilbert Germann. The first is dated 1911 and the other two did not have a postmark. They were probably delivered in person about the same time.

I am doing some last-minute Christmas decorating and found these four 5 x 7 counted x-stitch Santas that I made in 1993 and 1994. I always enjoyed this craft and these are some of my favorite pieces.
I wish all of you a very Merry and Blessed Christmas!

Greetings from the Chattanooga, Ohio, area. Yes, Ohio has its very own Chattanooga, aka Chatt, a small village in west-central Ohio, near the Indiana border. I have been doing family history research for over 20 years and am a Board-Certified genealogist, certified by the Board for Certification of Genealogists®. My main genealogical interests are family research, cemetery research, and historical and genealogical research of the Chatt area, with a focus on two area Lutheran Churches, both named Zion Lutheran, one in Chatt and the other in Schumm, Ohio. Family names I am researching include Miller, Schumm, Brewster, Rueck, Reid, Headington, Huey, Bryan, Whiteman, Schinnerer, Scaer, Breuninger, Bennett, and a few others. I belong to several lineage societies, including the Daughters of the American Revolution, U.S. Daughters of 1812, First Families of Ohio, and First Families of Mercer and Van Wert Counties. I am also a retired dental hygienist and our church organist. I hope you enjoy Karen's Chatt.

Wow, your Santas are very beautifully stitched. And I like the greeting postcards too (of course I’ve been posting some from my husband’s family for the holidays). Wishing you and your family a happy and healthy 2017.

Thank you! I hope some day to have some extra time to x-stich again… Merry Christmas!
