Write up the their story! Somewhere you will find a place to archive it. My foster brother is Polish and I did his paternal tree as far back as I could. He was very grateful for it. I made copies for his brother and sisters and a couple for the nieces and nephews who said they wanted a copy. I got lucky that I found records. I wish I could have found stories as to why they came when they did. What hardships they faced, like arriving in this country with $2.60 American. We have found NOTHING on his mothers side. I decided that I would try his wife's side. Her mother is ill and in her 90's. I found about 3 generations that I was sure was their family. There was other names in the right area and time period but I couldn't connect them. I made a list. Grandma said, "That my uncle Frank" The kids said, "Uncle Frank we don't have an Uncle Frank". I think Grandma like the trip down the old memory lane. I documented every one she could remember and added 32 people to the tree. She even remember meeting two of the relatives that were in the Civil War!!! Denise Dogs are not our whole life, But they make our lives whole.
