The box in the image contained slides of photos taken when my grandparents and I went to Nebraska in 1990. None of the slides in that box have anything written on them but I need to track which images came from the box with the &#8220;1990 Nebraska Us &amp; Michael Trip.&#8221; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And the slides that have information written on them. I need to preserve that as well. Unfortunately not all slides are identified, but some are as shown in the image. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1005\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/genealogytipoftheday.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/slide-tray-1005x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-16554\" srcset=\"https:\/\/genealogytipoftheday.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/slide-tray-1005x1024.jpg 1005w, https:\/\/genealogytipoftheday.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/slide-tray-295x300.jpg 295w, https:\/\/genealogytipoftheday.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/slide-tray-768x782.jpg 768w, https:\/\/genealogytipoftheday.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/slide-tray.jpg 1890w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1005px) 100vw, 1005px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Scanning the slides is important, but so is preserving the organization and identification information. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I need to organize the images in folders that match the boxes (along with including the box image).
