Description of Services:
One of the most profitable ways of gathering details and nuances of your family history is with the oral interview.

However, conducting your own interview with a family member may not provide the best recollection of your family's story.
There may be family dynamics that limit the interviewee's response...
The interviewee may assume that you already know certain information...
There may be a hesitancy to tell something that might hurt your feelings...
Let Heritage Archives gathering your family's rich history. From audio recording...to a two video camera interview, the power of personal story turns what may seem mundane facts into family heirlooms.
We can even do an interview over the telephone!
