Do you know how to preserve your family artifacts? Today we’re talking about how to keep those family heirlooms, documents, bibles, newspapers and more… safe and dry for future generations.
Today’s guest is known as “The Archives Lady” her name is Melissa Barker. She is a Certified Archives Manager currently working as the Houston County, Tennessee Archivist.
I love her blog called the Genealogist in the Archives. She is the reviews editor for the Federation of Genealogical Societies magazine called The Forum and writes regularly for the website Abundant Genealogy… as well as a biweekly column for the local newspaper.
Let’s learn about becoming a home archivist from The Archives Lady herself, Melissa Barker!
