Let’s talk about why #writing your #familyhistory matters, even if your relatives couldn’t care less. I’ll go first. Read my thoughts on the blog at https://t.co/ao98ec6fQV

@anne_idril eee! Look how cute and little they were! Have you had the talk about how it's all downhill now they are double digits?

@jennyhawran @gazetteancetres I uncover their stories. My ancestors aren't lost, so they don't need to be found. Just because I don't know where they are doesn't make them lost... just like my house keys every time I want to go out. 😳

#familyhistory templates aren't "one-size-fits-all". In episode 35 of Art of Family History, I share how to determine the right "size" for you. https://t.co/ns1DWaJxIO

Do you feel like you spend more time trying to find your notes than you do on #genealogy research? The new Art of Family History episode is for you. https://t.co/kWAY56mkDa

Happy #FathersDay to all the Dads

What would you like to ask a #GraphicDesigner about creating keepsakes or converting your #genealogy research into stories? #familyhistory

[Prudence | The Creative Family Historian @hello_prudence]

@STTBooks thanks for sharing!

@geneaalacarte @JohnDReid @institutdrouin @Irish_Genealogy @AliceChildsGen @dickeastman @famtreeadvice Thanks for including my blog post in this week's round-up.

If you could wave a magic wand and eliminate your biggest non-brick wall #Genealogy challenge, what would it be?

Using only emojis tell me about your plans for celebrating the end of 2021!

[Prudence | The Creative Family Historian @hello_prudence]

Do you set #goals or make resolutions?

I'm a big fan of goals. However, #resolutions seem a little more wishy-washy to me. Silly right? 😆 After all, they're the same thing.

How about you? Are you making goals for 2022, or do you have a resolution ready to go?

Today I'm celebrating Nana D, born #OTD in 1893. She was the best family #storyteller.

Sadly, she passed away when I was 12, & I missed my opportunity to pester her with all my #familyhistory questions.

Thank goodness for #family who did listen & learn some of the stories.❤

@helenbr00k5 I hate to think how many clues I've misfiled because I wrote them on teeny, tiny pieces of paper. The exercise books are working out well for me (so far, so good!)

[Prudence | The Creative Family Historian @hello_prudence]

Being #organised can be so tricky when taking & storing notes!

My secret tip? I now have an exercise book for every #ancestor, & anything on a loose piece of paper is stored in a plastic sleeve, then added to my #research log.

What do you do to keep all of your notes together?

[Prudence | The Creative Family Historian @hello_prudence]

Research discoveries can be used in so many different ways. How do you usually use yours?
