MEMORY KEEPING: CAPTURE THE PAST WITH FOREVER GENEALOGY
Growing the Roots of Your Tree
Memory Keepers do all kinds of things. Some of us became the Family Historian unexpectedly, finding ourselves flooded with media from the past we needed to do something with. Others are the eager hunters and gatherers of every family photo, reel, slide, tape etc. Still others reach further into the past, seeing out the roots of their family trees, ever joyful to receive a notification that a new family member has been found. Still others take a DNA test and after reading it wonder what to do next. FOREVER has solutions for all these projects.
Because FOREVER does so many kinds of things, from digitization and storage to photo books and greeting cards, many customers don’t even realize there’s a Genealogy Department at FOREVER and if they do, then it’s sometimes a mystery exactly what happens there. Well, if you’re trying to grow the roots and limbs of your family tree, then you should get to know the Genealogy Department at FOREVER.
This is Katie and Keri, they are professional genealogist with a network of contacts all over the world. Can’t make a connection to your fabled Revolutionary War Patriot, Texas Settler or Confederate Soldier? They can follow the breadcrumbs and solve the mystery. Does your research stop where your language skills can’t go? Look to these ladies to carry your further down the road of your family history. Do you have the language skills but don’t have the contacts to break down a brick wall in your research? Then you need Katie and Keri.
Four Ways to Connect
The easiest and cheapest way to get genealogical help is to plug into the quarterly Genealogical Group Events. These ladies present practical how-to tidbits from their vast experience, introduce new sources of information and how to use them and they have Q&A sessions. The most recent event was back in August and another one will be coming soon.
There’s also a one time consultation that gives you one hour, one-on-one with one of our experts. You can tell them where you are, what you need and where you’d like to go. During the call they will help you figure out next steps, recommend resources and help you solve genealogical conundrums. That might be all you need to start your genealogical journey or to get you back on course in the journey you are already on. Or perhaps during the call, you’ll realize you need even more help and book further sessions with them.
If you’re a do-it-yourself kind of person, but you’d like to have a little help, then all you need are coaching sessions. You can buy one hour coaching sessions in packages of 3 months, 6 months or a year.
If you just need someone to do it for you, then you’ll be interested in the Research Project Plans. This would be me. I love the results, but I’m not doing any research, so I’d love to have someone do it for me. But even seasoned genealogist sometimes run into brick walls. Perhaps its a lack of resources, a lack of time or a lack of language skills, but even the best researcher, amateur or professional, can run out of available options. Research Project Plans can solve these dilemmas.
So, if growing your family tree is a thing you love, be aware that we have all these resources to help out.
