Today celebrates the twelfth day of Christmas, marking the Feast of the Epiphany. In Ireland it is also known as Nollaig na mBan, or "Women's Christmas," an Irish tradition where women rest from holiday chores and raise a glass to each other.

Happy New Year! Here’s an old Shieldsville story from the book ‘Meet Shieldsville’. 🥂

“John C. Carpenter bought the Coleman store in 1893. He made such a success of it that he was obliged to put up a new building for a store, dwelling, and hall and he named it ‘Music Hall’... I must tell you more about Music Hall. New Year’s night the Ladies Auxiliary of the Ancient Order of Hibernians claimed for their own. Invitations in an envelope were sent to the very nicest people and had to be presented at the door. No admission without the invitation (and a dollar bill). At midnight supper was served. After supper the dance went on and the party was considered a failure if the guests left before dawn.” -MLH ☘️
Happy New Year to all! 🥂

A huge ‘thank you’ to cousin David Lambert for his efforts in pushing back the woods at the back of St. Patrick’s cemetery with his skid loader and chainsaw. David found several old gravestones in the underbrush, as well as making trails down towards Mud Lake. Check it out sometime!
