That’s a (historical) fact!

Scrapbooking old family photos can be fun but it can also be daunting. You may ask yourself, “How do I get started? And once I’ve started, how do I continue?” Celebrity scrapbooker Becky Higgins answers dozens of family history questions in her comprehensive book, “Family History Scrapbooking.

The question we’re going to answer for this IdeaBooks4u Blog challenge is this:  “How can I find information on what happened the year my (insert relative) was born?”  The answer is simple, Google it!  Simply type in the year into the search engine and immediately you will have tons of information at your fingertips such as major world news events to who won the Academy Award for Best Actress.  Your resulting pages will not only be fun to look at but also fascinating to read.

Check out this wonderful page by Bonnie:

It not only includes an early photo of her mother alongside a birth announcement (in her grandmother’s own handwriting) but also a fun story on the origin of Fritos!

Check out the rest of our examples on the IdeaBooks4u Blog.  Have fun with this one then create your own historical page and share it with us in the IdeaBooks4u Inspiration Gallery at DD.
