Major project under way: scanning folders full of family history documents, photos, and narratives on to my computer.  Much of the material was informally bequeathed to me by my late Uncle Chad.  I've brought additional items back from my mother's house after my last two visits there.  Final goal is to put all the material onto CDs/DVDs and give copies to family i.e. sibs and kids.  It is super exciting and very interesting to find something like the passenger list for the SS Wyoming that came from London to New York in 1884 with my fore-bearers on it as immigrants from England.  Seeing the documents, reading the censuses, and looking at the photos puts life into these people and helps me connect with them in ways that are difficult to explain.  They. Are. Family!
