Welcome to American Echoes.  

Come celebrate your family heritage with us. 

Let us help you share your heritage with others.

I See & Other Stories by Addiena Marie Luke-Currier.  Do you want to truly see the world through a child's eyes?

Heritage –  her-i-tage (noun) 1. something somebody is born to, 2. riches of past, 

3. something passing from generation to generation, 4. legal inheritance. 

-- Encarta English Dictionary

Family Heritage – We see family as a group of people who are closely related by birth, marriage, adoption, or some other common bond.  We define family heritage as a family’s history (as in events, folklore, experiences and traditions) or historical assets (as in the stories or items that reflect the history and heritage) that are considered to be of interest, importance and intrinsic value to present and future generations.

Would like to capture your family heritage, but don't know where to start?  Let us give you a hand.  We are here to celebrate the stories of our lives, give direction and guidance, and introduce you to some publishing basics.  Creating and sharing family heritage is one of the greatest gifts you can give to the people you love.
