Did you know that the remains of the real generous Santa Claus/St. Nicholas/Farther Christmas are buried in Ireland? Read on... One story tells of a poor peasant with three daughters, who could not afford the dowry for his three daughters and he was being forced to sell them into slavery. As he began to despair, on three separate nights as they came of age, bags of gold appeared in his home, seemingly tossed through a window or down the chimney as they slept, landing in shoes left by the fire. The story inspired the tradition of children leaving out their stockings to be filled by Santa Claus.
