This article resonated with me, the designated family archivist. I am at this moment moving cartons of 4 generations of photographs to my home in FL. If not for my interest, these family images and history would long ago have been discarded. I can only hope that one of my children, grandchildren, nephews, or their families will treasure family history as I do and continue to save and record. I would love to participate in a workshop to shape this family history. That would make the task less forboding for future archivists than 12 cartons of "stuff".
