Remember when I talked about the importance of sourcing every fact you find about your family members?
Keeping track of those sources and files is just as important. I recommend creating an organizational system for your family history documents early in the process. Today, I’m focusing specifically on digital files.
In this carousel, I’ve included the system I use to organize my family history files. The most important thing to remember is that there isn’t one “right” way to do this. The best system is the one that works for you.
I have ADHD, so I need a simple system that helps me keep track of everything without feeling overwhelmed.
If this approach doesn’t seem like the best fit for your brain, don’t be afraid to explore other methods until you find one that does.
