Firie Family Histories and recollections



The FSMV is very thankful to everyone who has shared their stories with us and allowed us to publish them.

We would encourage anyone and everyone to try something like this as everyone's memories contribute
to our collective history. So why not write up a few stories or memories and send them in to the museum
and we can publish them on your behalf !
