WHY DO WE DISCUSS BOTH FAMILY HISTORY AND GENEALOGY ?
After doing genealogy for 20 years, I learned in the 1990s that Family History is more valuable. Genealogy is remembering names and dates. Family
History is remembering people. I had taped an interview of my mother and just happened to record her sister who popped in for a visit. It was the only time my aunt's voice was ever recorded.
I sent a copy of the tape to my aunt's granddaughter who was living far from home. She cried. I love Family History.
