My elders instilled in me at a very young age the importance of always knowing my family. They visited one another, traveled together, told amazing stories & shared priceless photos.  The more that is discovered & shared about our family’s story, the more we can learn about ourselves. Uncovering these amazing discoveries go beyond names and dates and can help us see our ancestors as real people. 

By knowing who your family is we can learn where our ancestors came from, the languages they spoke and the religion they practiced.

By knowing who our family is we learn the health issues our ancestors dealt with that will allow us to be aware of the risks that we have of developing the same problems.

By knowing who our family is we can preserve family traditions and cultures.
