It is my desire that when I die, if my family comes in and wonders what to do with all this paper, records, books, etc., I would like for them to take the time and trouble to "ship it" or take it to one of three or four places. I hereby bequeath all of my genealogical and historical-related papers to:
- the University of West Florida Archives in Pensacola, Florida OR
- the Family History Library in Salt Lake City, Utah OR
- the Baker Block Museum in Baker, Okaloosa County, FL
- OR to the Fort Wayne, Indiana Library.!!
Hopefully, I will start moving my papers and records to one of these repositories, while I am still alive. I do not want to burden my family with doing this. If the members of my family are overwhelmed (as I am) with what I left behind, then of course they are free to do whatever! I would rather be remembered not for what physical records I have, but for what I did, who I was, and how I treated family and friends!
