Phyllis has an excellent memory, and remembered her ancestors in great detail. Her family knew that her memory was a family treasure, and wanted to save her stories for posterity. We transcribed our audio interviews with Phyllis, and categorized her stories by each ancestor. In the end, we had compiled hundreds of pages of stories, detailing each family member. Supplementing the book with genealogical data and scans of precious historical photographs, the family now has a complete anthology of the Dalrymple family.
“This book is amazing! We didn’t know how much information Grandma had about our ancestors, and to see it all in one place is incredible. I feel like we are getting acquainted with previous generations of our family. It is so nice to have a story to go with the photos.”
-Phyllis’ granddaughter
“Until this book was written, all the information I had about the Dalrymples was a digital family tree. I had no stories of these people. Our ancestors have now come to life in this book.”
