“In every conceivable manner, the family is link to our past, bridge to our future.” – Alex Haley
Our history is more than the shared milestones in our culture, city, and country. It also includes the stories of millions of families and their unsung heroes. Unfortunately, the stories are not always central in the education of younger generations. As a result, there seems to be a gap between the past and present, which is also impacting the future. Take control and put your family history back where it should be.
The lack of value placed on history, especially family history, has led to the erosion of family values and strong foundation. This tour encourages families to make their history central. Family historians will learn how to collect, protect, and share their family stories.
The presentation focuses on current family history and goes back 100 years. It will cover the following topics plus more:
Getting Started
Going Digital/Online
Honoring Veterans
Avoiding Pitfalls
