New Website Challenges
25 March 2020
Hi to all of you members who are peeling themselves away from the CoronaVirus news to see the new site, which is like a home, always in the process of renovating and/or decorating!
I was excited to take on this project was to sort and feature all of the wonderful work that has been done over the last 28 years of Leftwich Heritage issues. We have an index, but I hoped to make these articles easier to find and read.
What I didn’t count on was the really really big job to create the new site! It isn’t perfect, but I’m doing what I can. At the end of the day, WordPress is limiting; picture and file sizes have to be much smaller than what we have available, for example, but we’ll keep trying to try to find a way to get this up for the members.
Mike Starr and I, on opposite sides of the North American continent (British Columba and Maryland), are going to be “besties,” even if it kills us (not even funny now)?? Thanks to Nancy Jay and Sherrie Boone who are helping with information. Stay well, Cousins.

Hi, and welcome to the new Leftwich Historical Association website! It’ll be under development for some time as I get used to putting piles of information and photographs into it. Steep learning curve here, but if you’ll continue to be patient, I think it’ll work for all of us.
Log into the Members section to see the interesting information!
The public part, due to privacy issues, won’t have a lot of your names or pictures. From there, go to the MEMBER BLOG to keep up on what’s new, especially for members.
The idea is to replace the newsletter/Bulletin and draw people here who prefer it to Facebook.
We’re all facing radical challenges with COVID-19, we wish all of our members and their families and friends safety and good health.
