If I could leave five things for future generations...it would be the following:
1. All the photographs that have meaning to me
My daughter holding my first grandchild/grandbabies/ youngest son w/girlfriend/oldest son w/girlfriend/oldest son age 3/ myself & hubby/older son..beautiful daughter's wedding & (1) ex/Seabiscuit/War Admiral Race of 1938...with the story of my father/History of hubby's father & WWII prisoner of War Story/Older son in front of Takabayashi Castle...samurai in the mix/Picture of Oba-san & grandson in Tamagawa w/stories.
2. A Stamp Collection
3. A family bible detailing back to the 1800's in South Carolina
4. All the Genealogy charts/information on family on both sides going back as of now to the 1600's.
5. Voices on tapes of both my grandmothers detailing their live...put on CD's along with all other relatives now alive...so in the future they can hear our thoughts, beliefs and goals....and well wishes to the future generation.

Thank you so much for visiting my journal. You are very fortunate to have a family Bible that contains information. Nothing like that in our family. I agree that female lines are harder to trace because they married and changed names. I also envy you (in the nicest way) that your Mother got that tape done. How I wish I had done the same thing or at least asked a lot more questions. I still have unsolved mysteries. Glad you enjoyed my entry. Please do visit again. You might enjoy all my memories of my Grandmother's house plus family photos I have put on.
I shall certainly be back to yours and I loved the photographs!!!
