Thursday, April 4
Managing Your Family Memories  (Program)
5:30 pm to 6:45 pm
Brown County Public Library, 200 West Grant Street, Georgetown, OH
Do you have:
Heirloom photos you want to preserve?
Adult children who do not want your old photos and movies?
No one but you who knows who is who in your photos?
Content on an obsolete format (like floppies, VHS, tape & cassette)?
Boxes & drawers of unsorted, unlabeled family photos?
 
Brown County Genealogical Society is hosting a presentation by Tabitha O’Connor.  She is an expert in rescuing, organizing, and preserving family memories.  She will cover the basics for tackling this work yourself – what materials are safe or unsafe, preventing deterioration, safe ways to document the who, when and why of photos, organizing large amounts of content, keeping the stories, and finding forever homes for your family memories so that future family members will know where they came from.  Because this can feel overwhelming, she will also share ways to structure the work a bit at a time, and a lifeline for when you need help.
Ms. O’Connor has been a personal memory manager for over 20 years.  She works with families, libraries, historical societies, and UC’s OLLI program for adults.  She will also speak at the Ohio Genealogical Society this year. 
 
This meeting is free of charge and open to the public.
