It tells the story of your family in words and pictures, going back as many generations as you wish. Pretty soon there may not be many elders around to explain just who is who in certain photos and reminisce about “the old days.” So I started thinking about making a genealogy photo book, sort of a family tree book.Īlso known as a heritage album, this is essentially a history book of your family. This got me thinking…all these photos just sitting in a box, with family members getting older, memories fading.

As I went through them they brought back fond memories of my childhood, and a small amount of horror as I saw a few of my hideous hairdos through the years – pixies and perms? Ugh! I also ran across old wedding photos of my aunt and uncle, pictures of my dad as a kid, others of my grandparents and great aunts and uncles, as well as pics of the many cousins in my large family. With the passing of a beloved aunt a few months ago, I acquired a box of old family photos that she had stashed away.
