Do add other things besides text!

Books can be dry facts, or the most wonderful and engaging non-fiction historical account. However, it's always nice to "spice up" the text with other items.

***

Basic ideas include:

family photos - portraits and/or snap shots

bullet

photographs of the place

bullet

bullet

Factoids, did you know, and "trivia"

bullet

newspaper items - both actual news and advertisements

bullet

"academic" history - history that influenced but not directly touched the family

Family PortraitSome interesting items we has seen go into genealogy and family history books include: WWII Ration book and what was left of the family stamps, photos of boot camp (including the bugler), military unit photos, listing of cemeteries (and locations) in the book, advertisements from family business, Railroad Card, etc.  Anything that someone may have (or currently do today) kept in/for a scrapbook should be considered.
