Contributing to Our Family Journey


As we said elsewhere, not only do we want to compile as much of the history of our family, learning as much as we can about how previous generations fared or lived (our histories), we also want to preserve for our grandchildren and great grandchildren what our lives have been like, something like oral histories (our stories). In other words, our memories of our lives will be history for our grandchildren. And so on down the generations. So we encourage everyone in our family to contribute documents, photos, memories and thoughts about your parents and grandparents, yourself and your children, even of siblings or other relatives -- every little tidbit helps to make the family experience, the family history, come alive and preserve an understanding of a way of life that may not last.

We invite you then, if you have some material to share, whether about a distant ancestor, a more recent ancestor, or those of us alive today, to share them with us and let us share them with the whole family and, if you wish, the whole world. Write us. And thank you.
