The little urchins are shouting, not singing, “We Wish You a Merry Christmas.” Family gatherings were as bad then as they are now.

If you listen carefully, there is something about airing of grievances and feats of strength.

And check out the photo.

Voices from the past. A family Christmas, 110 years ago. Those voices you hear are of little children who have long since lived their lives, grown old, and died.

“We Wish You a Merry Christmas” apparently goes back to the 16th century.

Very cool - seems like more than a singalong (harmonies, etc.).

Amazing how the reverence and joy seems to come across the ages.
