GenFriends Genealogy Chat Show: Sorting Through Family Things with Dan Earl

Melissa Barker, Jenny Hawran, Mary Kircher Roddy, and I welcome Dan back from his trip to Arizona, where he had the task of going through the things left behind in his parent's home after his mom's death and his father's move to Florida.

Watch as Dan shares some amazing discoveries and talks about the emotions of dealing with a loved one's belongings. What do you keep? How do you decide?

Melissa helps by sharing how to keep items preserved for future generations.

What has been your experience having to sort through family things?

Do you have a favorite heirloom?

We'd love to hear from you!
