Preserving the family history and sharing it with the next generations has become imperative to many of us, anxious to ensure that all the research and memories of lives lived and tragically lost would not be swept into the dustpan of history. This presentation deals with the fascinating journey of discovery of my son, grandson and I to Latvia and Lithuania that I arranged, hoping to share with them much of what I had learnt. In our ten days of travel, we experienced and visited specific places, met people pertaining to our family, and came to appreciate the contrast between life then and now in towns and cities. Drawing on two decades of research and many previous visits, I carefully planned the personalized journey for the three of us enabling the family tree to meaningfully come alive for our next two generations.
