The Ancestor Journeys program will explore prompts to inspire genealogists to write a story about an ancestor’s journey. The journey might be geographical, circumstantial, psychological, or metaphorical. An ancestor’s journey may have been optimistic,
adventurous, tragic, practical, religious, or interior. An ancestor may have experienced more than one type of journey. Each of our ancestors has undertaken a journey of one kind or another. Many ancestors will have traveled on several journeys over the course of a lifetime. The prompts can also be used to write about our own journeys.
