DOWNLOAD EBOOKIn this day of fast food, instant messaging and cell phones Create Your Own Family Originals is a fun, exciting and inspiring book to turn your thoughts to what is real and important in life, family and friends. This unique book will evoke a smile, spark a memory, and encourage celebrating special occasions in your own life and in the lives of those you love. The book itself is a wonderful gift for family and friends. Inside it is filled with meaningful and personal gift ideas for those very same people. In our consumer-crazed world, we sometimes overlook the fact that a gift of memory, a personal message of connection, or a thoughtful gesture might have more value than all the tangible objects and monetary gifts in the world. Family Originals focuses on this concept and promotes easy ways to share personal history, unique moments and family lore with loved ones. Story-telling is a timeless way to communicate, and this book is filled with real stories about real people. Some humorous, some historical, and some poignant, these stories translate into powerful messages. For anyone who can identify with such phrases as "My, how time flies!" or "Do you remember when?" or "I wish I had asked my parents about that!" Create Your Own Family Originals is a special find!

DOWNLOAD EBOOKA beginner’s guide to building a website that traces your family’s lineage as a resource for present and future generations, or for finding new relatives. Planting Your Family Tree Online is designed to take you step-by-step through the process of creating a genealogy Web site. When people begin their genealogical adventure, they usually interview elderly members of the family and contact other family members. The next step is usually one of organization of the information collected. The third step is usually to share this information with other family members, traditionally by publishing research in a book. However, a family Web site has numerous advantages: It is interactive so others can contribute their stories and pictures. It will help you find long-lost relatives. It is an ideal way to preserve research for the entire family. It will break down the walls that have stumped you in your research. It recognizes that family research is an ongoing process This book is written by Cyndi Howells, owner and webmaster of Cyndi’s List, a Web site of more than 130,000 online genealogical resources. Cyndi points out, “This book is loaded with URLs to Web sites that will give you everything you need to create a beautiful family tree online.” However, Web site URLs change daily and some may no longer work. She has created web pages as part of Cyndi’s List that correspond to the features of the book so that the URLs will be kept up-to-date.
