What you’re leaving for others is a true gift! I do the same on Ancestry, but I should consider doing it on the other places. One other thing that I’ve done is attach a written explanation for how I proved or disproved a fact for an ancestor. As you’ve said, there are so many inaccuracies, it’s important to “show your work” to help others researching a common ancestor.

I really like the idea of photographing keepsakes and sharing them via FamilySearch and other online trees.

Great article. I've not used memories. I think I'll need to do that now! Thanks.

Oh Deborah, I’m so touched to have started you down this path. Now you’ve inspired me. I have benefitted tremendously from posts to FamilySearch. Now you’ve inspired me with Memories. I just might do that. As with everything learned on the web…., “Trust, but verify.”
