Remembrance Day 2015

WW1 Family Keepsake

Lest we forget

Marking the 97th anniversary of the First World War in 1918. A war that changed families and communities with the crippling and loss of lives.

If you’ve read Digital Dreaming you’ll understand the  honouring of the keepsakes handed down as these mementos near the 100th year being treasured.

You’ll remember in a earlier post:  Envelopes, Parents and Documented Keepsakes I wrote about my dad leaving behind envelopes with notes inside and a family keepsake. You’ll see below another example with the one franc note below, and Dad making sure the family understood the family significance of handing down for 97 years.

Scanning and Family Classification systems

Documenting and scanning Prized Possessions

If you’ve read Digital Dreaming you’ll know that scanning items into a knowledge process allows you to write and create family stories for future generations to know. The picture below is of a family document written by my wife to honour the ANZAC that served in our family.

Let’s keep remembering our past family ancestors and treasuring family keepsakes like the one I’ve shared with you today.
