Suggestions For
Submitting Your Personal/Family History
 |
Have fun! Writing
your personal family history is an opportunity for you to take a
trip down memory lane. |
 |
Be creative! Your
family history can be written in many different ways. You may want
to tell your story in the first person, using "I" in your
narrative. Or you may decide to tell your story in the third
person, like a newspaper article. |
 |
Consider what you
want others to remember about you. You are free to write as much or
as little as you please. You may want to tell your "life story" or
just one story that reflects something significant about your life.
|
 |
Try to include
enough information about yourself to provide a clear picture of who
you are. After all, that's the whole point. (smile) |
 |
Remember... no one
can tell your story better than you. |
 |
Send your story to:
info@oxford9.com Stories
will be posted to our family website (unless you request otherwise)
and stored on a disk. |
Think you're too young to tell your
story?
Interview your parents, grandparents,
aunts and uncles instead! Write their stories and submit them to be
published on the web. We want to hear from you too!
