Heritage
Beginners
Start small, build momentum
Begin with what you know, then interview elders and upload the photos and recordings — all in one private hub.
First steps (week 1)
- Sketch parents, siblings, grandparents
- List 10 key dates (births, moves, weddings)
- Record a 2–5 minute voice note with consent
| Source | Where to store | Tip |
|---|---|---|
| Old photos | Memory Lane | Write who, where and when into the caption |
| Documents | Memory Lane | Add a 1–2 sentence caption explaining what it is |
| Stories | Memory Lane (audio) | Type a short summary into the caption so it is findable |
FAQs
- What if I can’t verify everything?
- Capture leads now and validate as you research. Mark uncertain facts and revise later.
- How do I keep family on board?
- Share gentle updates and ask for consent before posting publicly.
