March 4 - What'll happen to your research when you're gone?

March 4 – What’ll happen to your research when you’re gone? Arrange to leave it to a relative or a historical society.

Not only make arrangements, but you need to let your spouse or whoever is your next of kin. Just like being an organ donor, you need to let family members know. If you don’t know who might be going through your stuff, leave a note or will and be specific. I found out my cousin threw out all the personal belonging for his father, (my uncle) because he was adopted and didn’t want it and didn’t know who might. I was devastated!
