Family Memoirs

 
Home Page

A Family Memoir will be a treasured family heirloom. Its value to present and to future generations would be significant as it will enable them to understand more about their family history and background.

A short biographical account could, for examwww.family-memoirs.co.ukple, focus on an elderly relative's experience of the war years, the start-up of a business venture, or growing up in the early years of the last century. Such accounts can prove a valuable source of social history, with oral histories forming a key source of data for historians.

'A professional writing and advisory service is offered to anyone thinking about creating a memoir of a family member, themselves or an organisation.'

If you already have a collection of documents, interviews and other family information, these can be professionally sorted, analysed and written up, for you, to form a unique memoir. Where necessary, interviews and further research can also be carried out on your behalf. If you wish to carry out the interviews and research yourself, then guidance on how to do this will be given.

Have you ever wondered about your family's history? What they did and how they lived their everyday lives? A family tree may tell you names and key dates but it cannot bring their experiences to life. To redress this balance for the future we need to talk now to our elderly relatives. Every life is rich with memories. These are the stories that you cannot get from history books.
