Creating a heritage album can be one of the most rewarding projects you'll ever do. You are crafting a treasury of family photos that will be pored over, studied, analyzed and cherished by future generations. With a little information and some page ideas, you'll be ready to get started on your own album! Many families have an "official" historian, the person in charge of keeping the family photos safe for future generations, but photos can often get lost in the shuffle of cross-country moves, divorces and other family changes. Gathering these photos and memorabilia in one place is the first step. Remember, color-copies of photos, yes, even for black-and-white photos, work well if relatives are unwilling to part with the originals.
