Who we are

We all want to know our own history…

Your life and the lives of your ancestors have shaped you and your family. 

Do you want the next generation to know and understand where they came from?

Can you recall those stories and reflect on their meaning? 

Do you know where to begin?

Do you know how to do it ?

here is how we can help…

We are personal historians.

We’d love to tell your story and we know how to do it. Our personal interviews are professionally filmed and edited with care.

We listen and ask the questions that move your stories forward cohesively.

Your photos enhance the narrative; our research provides the historical context. 

Your gift to the future... 

Your gift to future generations is a record of the history and heritage of your family.

The video is yours to share as you choose - online or on a thumb-drive.

Imagine how extraordinary it will be for your grandchildren to hear those voices and see those faces.

Consider how significant it will be that the family’s history is preserved.

IN ALL OF US THERE IS A HUNGER, MARROW DEEP, TO KNOW OUR HERITAGE - TO KNOW WHO WE ARE AND WHERE WE CAME FROM. Alex Haley 

What we do

what we do 

Our primary focus is capturing your personal history for your family.

Our professional team works to record your life stories in a video format.  You are interviewed by an experienced and empathetic interviewer, and the film is edited thoughtfully. 

It may include your own photos, brief segments of old family

films that have been digitized, researched maps and historical images.

We will present you and your family with a lasting record 

of your family history online and other devices.
