A Waltons themed cartoon? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Does anybody remember a cartoon from the early 70's that was sort of an animated Waltons? A widow and her children lived with the grandfather and it was set in the "old days." I think it was called Those Were The Days or something.

The title was "These Are The Days", and it was produced by Hanna Barbera during the 1973-74 season as an animated drama, unusual for Saturday monrning tv.

I don't remeber much about the show itself out side of what I wrote above, but I do know it was gone after 1974. (H-B also did another animated family drama the following year, "Devlin", about an orphaned Motorcycle stunt rider and his siblings...this one didn't last too long, either, but was shown on the legendary USA Cartoon Express during the early 1980s.)
