Here's the scrapbook every family historian dreams of finding: Page after page of mementos, photos and documents, preserved alongside stories that capture ancestors' personalities and family traditions. It's not just a gold mine of genealogical facts. It provides a sense of your ancestors' lives that you can't get from an old record or pedigree chart.

Even if your forebears didn't oblige, you can still have the ancestral scrapbook you wish they'd left behind — create your own heritage album. With today's archival-quality preservation products, your album will last far longer than anything your ancestors could've created. Your descendants can enjoy it for generations to come.
