Why this guide matters

Family history rarely begins in one organised place.

It is often scattered across phones, photo albums, drawers, old documents, WhatsApp messages and relatives' memories.

Audio and video recordings, certificates and letters may hold just as much context. The checklist helps families understand what may be worth preserving before a full digital archive project begins.

Inside the checklist

Know what matters before you begin organising.

A useful first step

Begin with the family material you already have.

You do not need an organised collection. The checklist helps you look through one album, box or conversation at a time.

Respectful by design

We ask only for contact details to deliver the resource. Do not upload or send private family documents through this form.
