Porch Swing Tip of the Week: My Relatives
 
Recently I spoke with a couple who spent their two-week vacation researching the man’s great, great, great (I don’t remember how many greats.) Grandfather, who came to America on the Mayflower. They visited Plymouth Rock, the National Monument to the Forefathers, and other special sites in New England, and are excited to apply for membership in a society of Mayflower descendents.

Have you written about your relatives? They don’t have to be famous or important to anyone but you! Write about your parents’ brothers and sisters, and share a memory of an aunt or uncle. Do you feel you have common traits with your cousins? Tell us about a trip to visit relatives. Describe favorite memories with nieces and/or nephews. Feel free to include family members who were rascals, ragamuffins, or rats– and change their names, if it makes you feel better. (Like the crazy aunt everyone warned you about. We’ve all got’em!)

We have very much enjoyed, helping people gather, tell, and preserve their life stories over the last several years.

At this time, life has other plans for us, so we are ceasing operations at Porch Swing.

If you have any questions please contact us at info@porchswingstories.com

We recommend that you save any stories you placed on your Storysite that you choose to keep prior to December 31, 2025. (Open the chapter you want to save, hit Edit My Chapter, and copy and paste to Microsoft Word or another format.)

Thanks!
