It takes time, but I am so thankful that I am doing it. When I needed to find something the other day for a cousin, I looked at my catalog and was able to go right to the correct box and there it was! Much better than the "digging through all the piles 'cuz I know it is here somewhere" of a few years ago. <br /><br />I see from the picture you have lots of yellowing newspaper articles. If you have not already, I recommend transcribing all of them and also filing the transcriptions. Newspaper of old is falling apart and our newspaper of today has much less rag in it - so it is falling apart even faster.<br /><br />Enjoyed visiting your blog.Alice Keesey Mecoyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13503890371067129041noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4361643719072455990.post-21900655742871302532011-09-04T19:10:25.794-05:002011-09-04T19:10:25.794-05:00I agree with what Tina says - I can totally relate...I agree with what Tina says - I can totally relate. In looking for something that I knew I had in order to write a blog post, I came across all the other great "stuff" I have, not organized.<br /><br />I need to get some archival boxes and put all these wonderful things away in an organized manner so I can find them easily when I want to!Elizabeth Handlerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05529452862369140506noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4361643719072455990.post-10103341430085244342011-09-04T08:19:04.747-05:002011-09-04T08:19:04.747-05:00What a coincidence.

I'm sure I have just didn't remember it. It was all new to me again and very exciting.<br /><br />Learned my lesson to try and get organized because I know I have info hidden around the house that will help me.<br /><br />Oh, if only we could be cloned. I'd have a genealogy clone who would do all the scanning and data entry so I could do the fun research.Tina Telescahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15951533592858222405noreply@blogger.com
