Eugene's Christmas Present
In 1998, Eugene solicited family members to write stories relating their memories of childhood, their grandparents, or anything about being part of the Jones family. He then compiled the stories, along with loads of old photographs, into a beautifully bound book that he presented to his grandmother at Christmas.

It was a labor of love that took Eugene and his wife Susan several months to complete. The final product instantly became a family classic.

All the stories from this famous book can be found within this Web site.

Grandma's Baby Book
Another classic book is Helen's own creation. She crafted a huge white-covered book where she placed a page for each and every one of her children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren, and great-great grandchildren. She meticulously recorded each child's birth, marriage, and any special events in their lives.

Many of the photos found in this site were extracted from Grandma's Baby Book.
