What a great day at OGS!

We had so much fun presenting our class and workshop—thank you to everyone who attended and shared such kind feedback. It truly means a lot.

We’ve also loved meeting so many wonderful people, hearing your incredible stories, and sharing From Chaos to Curated with you.

Looking forward to another great day tomorrow!

Ready to turn your research into compelling stories?
Join our pre-conference workshop, From Researcher to Writer: Narrating Ancestors’ Place in History, led by Laura Hedgecock. This hands-on workshop will help you transform genealogical facts into meaningful narratives that place your ancestors within the broader context of American history.
Learn how to build context, craft strong openings, and write with both emotional and historical depth.
If you have the research but are not sure how to tell the story, this session is for you.

Step 28: Create a Collaborative Album
Collaborative albums are great for sharing group and event photos and videos. Individuals can create their own FREE FOREVER Account to upload files into the album to share. Do this by creating an album and from there select Share, then check the Allow anyone with the link to upload button. Share the album however you’d like—with a Link, QR Code, or Email.
NOTE: This enables anyone with the link who has an account to upload files to the album. Files uploaded will belong to you, appear in your Gallery, and count against your storage. Again, anyone on the internet can view and download the content with a link, so make sure you’re sharing with those you trust.
