Old family letters are a blessing. You will glean family history and in-depth stories from them that you can’t get any other way. Family letters can also be a curse! They can be difficult to read, let alone understand and document.

Join Mark Thompson, hosted by the Victoria Genealogical Society, as he shows you how to break your family letters project down into manageable pieces.  First, you’ll learn how to organize and preserve your letters so that they are easier and safer to study.  Next, you’ll learn how to create research-quality digital copies.  You’ll also see great approaches for documenting your letters that will not only improve your family history research but will also make it easier to share what you find with your family.
