Talk to the oldest living members of your family and ask them the names of their parents, siblings, and grandparents.
Talk to the oldest living members of your family and ask them the names of their parents, siblings, and grandparents. Go to your grandparents. Go to their siblings. Ask them to tell you their stories. They keep a treasure trove of fascinating stories waiting to be told. Do you know how your grandparents met? How about your parents? What were they like as a child? As teenagers? It will be fun, and they will surely enjoy retelling these old tales too. You may want to record these conversations too. They will be priceless once your grandparents (or parents) pass away. Fair warning though: memory is malleable, so don’t treat these stories as facts and do cross-reference them with photos and stories from other family members.
