I have one foot in the genealogy world and one foot in the “family passed this along” world. What is one of the biggest challenges to both? Organization. And for more reasons than the obvious one. For genealogy-focus folks — did you just make a trip to a library with a family history focus? You
What is the number one mistake we see people make with their photos? This might surprise you — NOT DIGITIZING THEM. Right now, your photographs are subject to flood, fire, and the general damage old age can cause. Think about it – how many fires and floods have occurred either impacting you or people you
What? STOP adding names to my family tree? I thought that was the point of genealogy work, isn’t it? Aren’t we all trying to find out if we have descended from a European King or have some link to royalty somewhere? Why should I STOP? When I was in my 20’s, pre-kids, living in

Special events like weddings and baby’s first steps are the usual topics – but what about that quick video of a special friend, family get-together or just ordinary kids playing in the newly fallen snow? And who has super 8 movies, VHS
How do YOU want to be remembered or known by future generations? And WHAT do you want them to remember about you? This hit me when I saw the early picture of my grandmother taken before she was married. It had been in my mother’s big dresser drawer where she pitched all photos – yes,
I love this photo of my grandfather (on far right) in the back of a car dealership where he was a mechanic (originally, he worked as a blacksmith and then switched to working on cars – for the rest of his work life). On the back, in his handwriting, it’s dated 1928 and given a
To redeem something means to buy it back, to regain possession of it, says the dictionary and my typical thinking about that word.
