    The Christmas presents / cards sent last year have never been confirmed.
    Therefore, this year the gifts I have chosen this year will be packed away neatly with the many mementoes, notes and diaries. They will be kept until they can be claimed. I feel this is for the best.
    If I could I would have carried to them, and given them personally. I hope to one day.
    It has been a grueling 6 year journey this far, I now have addresses, schools and general knowledge of my children's whereabouts. However still not a letter, card?
    Finding my children and being able to rebuild our relationship is my biggest ambition.

    Biography
    Matthew Frederic Martin Christopher was born on August 16, 1917 to Fred and Mary (Vass) Christopher. He was the oldest of nine children including seven boys and two girls. Christopher first became interested in writing when he was 14 years old. It was at that time, during his freshman year in high school, that Christopher was selling magazines such as Colliers Country Gentleman Liberty , and the Saturday Evening Post . He would read the stories with a great deal of interest, particularly the adventures, tales of horror, sports stories, aviation yarns, and mystery stories. He soon began to think about the possibility of not only writing such stories, but to make a living at doing so. As a result, he started writing his own works that included poetry, essays, and song lyrics. Sports had also always played an important part in Christopher's life. Baseball, in particular, was of interest to him. In fact, he had hoped to win an athletic scholarship to Cornell University, but he lacked the grades. When he graduated from Ludlowville High School in 1935, he found that sports could help him earn a living. In high school, he had played baseball, football and soccer. He went on to play professional baseball for a number of teams including those in Myers, New York (Cayuga Rock Salt); Freevile-Dryden, New York; and Smith Falls, Ontario.
