In “Family Histoire News,” a museum in Norwich, Connecticut is

contributions to the cause of
freedom before turning traitor. Find out
what that’s all about. And, a Seattle man recently found a
box full of color slides taken on his grandparents’ 1939 honeymoon
in England. You’ll want to see the links to these gorgeous
pictures taken just before the outbreak of World War
II.
This week’s
expert guest is Judy Lucey of the New
England Historic and Genealogical Society who gives some
great advice about things to consider when looking at contributing
your family history treasures to an institution or archive.
It’s something many of us will have to think about at some
point.
