Valerie Elkins --The
Magic of Storytelling
Do your families and friends love hearing your
genealogy research stories? Or does bringing up the “G” word empty the room
faster than a cat in a room full of rockers? Family history is really not only
about finding another name to add to pedigree charts. It is also about binding
our family’s hearts with the stories of their heritage. Stories full of love
and loss, happiness and devastation, heroics, valor and even shame - stories
that can provide strength and courage to present and future generations. Our
Family History stories need to be told and told well! If our families are not
interested in our family history – maybe we are not telling our stories right…
every family has great stories waiting to be told. You are invited to attend
this session to discover how to find the magic in your family history stories!
