Free, once a month

One family history question a month

A short email with one good question to ask an older relative, one simple tip for keeping what you hear, and now and then a story from the old records.

What you'll get

Small enough to read with your coffee

  • One question to ask, chosen to bring out a real story and not a yes or no
  • One small tip, like how to label a photograph or where an old record might be hiding
  • A story from the records now and then, often about the Does, our fictional sample family
  • Never more than one email a month, and you can stop any time, just by replying
  • Now and then, a word about our books or a gift idea, and that's as far as it goes
  • Your address stays with us. We never share it or sell it
