🎤 Preserving Family Photos, Stories, and Documents, by Carolyn Williams

Presenter: Carolyn Williams

This presentation provides organizational tips and procedures for capturing the story behind a photo or document, scanning the image, and then preserving both the physical and digital photos and documents for the next generation. Many of us have old boxes stuffed with family photos, letters, diaries, and other ephemera often bound with cracked rubber bands, rusting paper clips, or fraying string. If this material is going to last for future generations, we need to store them safely and organize, scan, and document.

Carolyn Williams is a family genealogist and recent SMCGS board member. She holds a certificate from the Boston University Genealogical Research program, is currently enrolled in the ProGen professional genealogy course, and is a former Silicon Valley technology marketing professional.
