Dear Primos and Friends:

I mentioned in the May issue that in January 2014, Somos Primos will be moving towards sharing personal and family histories. With so many new Internet resources for genealogical research, I want to go beyond the dates and focus on giving readers the opportunity of sharing their personal and family histories on Somos Primos.

In support of that goal, I can recommend a very comfortable approach for everyone . First Writes, triggers memories and recall with a series of unfinished sentences. More than ten year ago, I participated in a class at our local senior citizen center. I really enjoyed it and ended up finishing the class for the teacher, who was not able to continue.
First Writes consists of 40 topics with about 20 questions in each unit.
The materials were developed as a method to gather oral histories among senior citizens in Wisconsin, but they are universal, and with some adaptation could be used with all ages. View the 40 topics and samples of four units which can be downloaded for free.

Writing a personal history or family history is an adventure, insightful and healing for the soul. I hope you all check it out.

God bless, Mimi
