Old letters and miltary documents are ususally welcomed too. May be in a hundred years your family is famous.
Yearbooks and annuals are also normally accepted.
Yes!! Famous or not, our historical society has many old photos of local people that are IDENTIFIED. I can't count the number that has been accepted for accession in the past. Sure it documents clothing but who are the people?? We also have vintage sewing machines, dishes, toys, clothing....all the items have a local connection. Don't throw, ask first!
