In the January/February 2024 issue of Family Tree Magazine, they have introduced The Year Ahead, 366 genealogy tips will make 2024 your best research year yet by Lisa A Alzo. Lisa mapped out a day-by-day research plan.
January 30 – Start a family history album that includes photographs and copies of family documents. Get inspiration at www.parade.com/1344479/marynliles/scrapbooking-ideas.
Scrapbooks don’t have to be hard or expensive buying all kinds of specialty products. I like using website’s like Shutterfly where I can create a small 8” x 8” book. Don’t know where to start, pick one ancestor, one of your beloved grandparents. Do you have any pictures? Can your siblings or cousins share a favorite story about that grandparent? Include a picture of your sibling or cousin on the page of their story. Look for vital records, census records to fill in the pages. Show a simple descendant chart. Don’t over think it, keep it simple.
Remember to have fun and Just do Genealogy!
