ABOUT THE PROJECT

A living family record, built together.

The WBJW Family Collaboration Project preserves the people, stories, photographs, documents, and connections that shaped our extended family.

OUR PURPOSE

More than a family tree

The private archive connects relatives across generations while protecting information about living family members. It gives the family a place to explore relationships, preserve historical materials, and build a more complete record over time.

As new records, memories, photographs, and relationships are discovered, the archive will continue to grow.

Preserve

Keep names, stories, dates, places, photographs, and documents from being lost.

Connect

Help relatives understand how people and family lines are related across generations.

Protect

Keep sensitive information about living relatives inside an approved private archive.
