We all know that the usual items such as marriage certificates, birth certificates, etc. should be saved and preserved, but there are personal items we don't think of as "historical." Our own professional and business papers, maps, audio/visual recordings, speeches and lectures, and diaries.
There isn't a time limit placed on things to make them historical documents. Even if these items were created last week, it's important to keep them protected for the next 100 years. After all, our diaries are a record to hand down to future generations to share our life experiences. Wouldn't it be sad if they fell apart when someone tried to read them, or worse, they were lost and no one could share in your story? This year ArtisticAncestry.com will be sharing with you a new and better way to save your family histories and treasures!
