Tip of the Week


Kids can do genealogy too! There are some fun family activities you can do with your children to get them involved in your genealogy search!

Try putting together a treasure chest of genealogy supplies for your child. Put markers, old pictures, disposable camera, clipboards and scrapbooking materials in the chest. Your child can use it to make his own genealogy book.

Another fun genealogy activity for kids is to go visit places where relatives lived. Take a road trip and visit the towns your relatives once lived in. Visit the cemeteries your ancestors are buried and have them do a tombstone rubbing with a crayon and paper. It is a neat one for your child to see the dates your ancestors lived.
