My family has lost touch with the past. When my mother died, she took the last of the family history with her. I know nothing of my father's family, because all his brothers and sisters have passed. There are no sons to take care of the name.
This leaves a gap in the family saga that will never be revealed...unless I post the documents I've got online.
My father's brothers have daughters, or granddaughters. My sister has sons, and grandchildren. I have no children. But I have a fistful of documents.
I'm wondering what I should do with these documents.
Ancestry.com is an interesting website. I've already uploaded a few old photos there for the sake of posterity.
However, there are more documents.
I'm thinking about what I should do with them. There's a family tree on the Gypsy side. I don't know where that came from, Mom had it.
