I have had a lot of success and need to get it all organized, as it is getting away from me. At the present time, I have everything in a 3-ring binder and an old accordion file. I am new at the computer, and would like to hold everything there, but it is unrealistic to lug this thing around to the libraries, archives, etc. Christine, let's see what we can do. As genealogists, we're faced with so many different types of information and materials.
Records come in all sizes.
There are small scraps of paper and receipts. There are large, unwieldy pension records, maps, and elaborate, oversize deeds. Then there are the documents that we, ourselves, create. No one filing system works for everyone. Your genealogy is a personal thing.
