Save Our Genealogy

One of the goals of this blog will be to raise awareness regarding the significant role that historical documents play in family history. Most people don't realize that tucked away in that shoebox in the closet are documents that catalog the lives of their ancestors.

The goal of this project is to encourage people to carefully preserve these documents, share them with other researchers and provide them with information needed to donate them to one of several genealogical archives in the United States. And by all means to prevent these items from being discarded with the weekly trash pickup.
