No one can do it all. There will be genealogical work “left undone” when you are no longer able to actively be involved in genealogical research. Try and prioritize:

  • preserve and share things you have access to that no one else does–pictures, family memorabilia, etc. 
  • identify any photographs you’ve not already
  • share and preserve any compilations you’ve already made
  • write up and share any discoveries you’ve made
  • research those records most at risk for being lost forever
  • realize that you can’t do it all
