"Based on conversations I've overheard in darkened microfilm reading rooms ...it seems that many of us are inspired to explore our family histories at least in part due to stories heard from grandparents and great-grandparents. A typical lament goes something like this: "You know, my grandmother told me all these things when I was a kid, but I didn't care about it then. If only I had l listened more closely."
Suppose for a moment that you could indeed recover those stories. Suppose you could hear those voices again. Wouldn’t it have been unbelievably good fortune if one of those conversations had been recorded and you could listen to it now? Why not make that dream come true for your family?" Let's do an oral history of your family this holiday season!
