I have kept lots of things from my childhood, including clothes, my first doll and my Atari 1 & 2 (and they both still work)! 😀 What cool blasts from the past are you passing down? . . . #timecapsule #handmedowns #heirloom #childhoodtoys #childhoodmemories #oldtoys #blastsfrommypast #genealogyfreak #genealogy #familytree #ancestry #wvgenealogist #logancountygenealogist #memories #keepsakes (at Amherstdale, West Virginia) https://www.instagram.com/p/B2F8zaznXN6/?igshid=1vh3yidqqy8xq

My Great-Grandpa Evans had a cousin who was a passenger on the RMS Titanic. We call her Edith but you know her by the name "Rose". Unfortunately, there was no giant door for her to claim all to herself and there was no happy ending. 🌬🌊🚢🌙 If you would like to read her in depth story and see documents and news clippings about her, message me for the link to my blog. Instagram won't let me post the address to it for some reason. 🌊🚢🌙 . . .#findyourfamily #telltheirstory #wvgenealogist #wvgenealogy #genealogyfreak #logancountygenealogist #ancestors #titanicvictims #evansfamilyhistory #evansfamily #familyhistorian #familyhistory #familytree #family #reallifeheroes #artimmitateslife #truestory💯 #myfamousfamily #history #historian #research #atlanticocean #shipwreck #lostatsea #buriedatsea #gonebutnotforgotten #edithcorseevans #titanic #rmstitanic (at RMS Titanic) https://www.instagram.com/p/B3WODalpRo_/?igshid=12xyxc4zl4ee7

My dad taught me the importance of photos and keepsakes at a very young age. I'm blessed that he was sentimental. Daddy is the baby in this photo. Granny (Sylvia Lilly) is holding him, standing next to my Great-Grandpa Theodore Hopson and her husband, Grandpa Harmon Sr. Photo taken between 1949-1950, McDowell County, WV . . . #mcdowellcountywv #hopsonfamily #wv #wvgenealogist #wvgenealogy #buffalocreekgenealogist #familyhistory #familyhistorian #familyresearch #research #history #keepsake #vintagephoto #oldphoto #genealogy #genealogist #hillbillyhistory #familyphotos #digyourroots #findyourfamily #telltheirstories (at McDowell County, West Virginia) https://www.instagram.com/p/B2HvfQZHuAy/?igshid=1qwbq69hlkgx0

I have every letter ever written to me in class from kindergarten to graduation. I keep EVERYTHING because you never know when some little nothing might end up being the 1 something that means everything to someone. . . . #genealogy #wvgenealogist #familyhistorian #familyhistory #familyhistoryblogger ##ancestors #ancestry #timecapsule #findyourfamily #telltheirstory #thegenealogyfreak #genealogyfreak #blogger #handmedowns #heirloom #keepsake #packrat #research #history #hopechest (at Logan, West Virginia) https://www.instagram.com/p/B12hwe8J6WZ/?igshid=vnxdzebocuq7
