Advice! It is better to record such interviews and family meetings with stories and memories immediately on-camera, audio, or in writing.
– to collect all photos, scan them and store them on a separate flash drive/ folder/cloud.

Family search process
Family history research is always interesting and exciting. The family search process is often similar to a detective investigation. It is necessary to interview all witnesses, look for information in social networks, books and archive documents, and compare the data found among themselves. The story of one person is part of our general history. Research of family history helps you learn more about the history of the city, country and the investigated era. Sometimes a thorough research of the fate of one person makes better understanding of large-scale historical events than any other source of information. The knowledge of the history of the family helps to understand how different events and moments manifest in the life of your current relatives. And through your own example, you can pass on the veneration of the family to your children and next generations.
Unfortunately, the documents are aging and many archival files will be denied, every year there are fewer facts that can be collected. It is becoming increasingly difficult to include them in genealogical research. Therefore, it is better not to postpone the research of your ancestors and analyze the safety of documents from the places of residence of your relatives right now!
