Family heritage is the birthright of every child !
Who were your ancestors? Where did their journey begin? Why did they first leave their homes? What was the legacy they wanted to pass on to us, their descendants?
Do you, your parents, or your children know the answers to these questions? If not, you all should. It is up to us, their descendants, to ensure that our ancestors' history does not die with them.
It is this history that I would like to help you discover and then assist you in passing it on to your descendants. They will forever thank you for taking the trouble to document your family of ancestors. I believe we owe our ancestors and our children's children this effort.
There are many ways that I can help you accomplish this, depending on where you wish to start and where you want to finish.
- Research: I have access to three well-stocked genealogy libraries within 20 miles of my office and access to high-speed Internet genealogy libraries throughout the Unites States. I have made extensive research trips throughout Florida, Georgia, and Alabama and as far north as the Carolina's and Virginia.
- Organization of material: Perhaps you have already completed your research but do not have the time or the expertise to organize your research material. With more than twenty years organizational experience, I can assist you in putting together the story of your ancestors that describes their rich history.
- Photographs: Share those prized and precious photographs passed on to you by your ancestors with relatives and future generations. I have more than ten years experience working with Adobe Photoshop®. I can turn black and white photographs into sepia color, crop unwanted elements out of photographs, and more.
- Stories and Family Lore: Share with family, friends, and relatives those many family anecdotes and stories that were passed from generation to generation and finally passed on to you. One or two of those stories may be a slight stretch of the truth, but they will make great reading for family members.
- Media: Share the results of your many hours of research with family, friends and relatives. There are several ways that we can accomplish this without investing an arm and a leg. Once again, this depends upon how you wish to preserve the history of your ancestors.
- Web Site: A web site is usually a work in progress. You can continuously add to, or update your research information. You can add new families as your additional research uncovers them. You can pass on your wonderful stories and display your valuable photographs in a web site for friends and family to view. Take a moment to browse through my genealogy web site to see how you might present your ancestors.
- Graphics: Graphics are created from Adobe Photoshop to customize your web pages to your family image. Your creative ability is in most cases your only limitation.
Why not take a moment and browse several of my current websites.
