“Nostalgia made me feel that my life had roots and continuity.” -Constantine Sedikide

As we celebrate 2015, let’s make a special New Year’s Resolution for our families. Let’s resolve to discover our roots through old photographs.

Most families have hundreds of analog photos in their homes. Where’s your family history hiding?

@ancestry and @savefamilyphotos are teaming up to inspire you to preserve your history by sharing your favorite family photos. Three lucky families will win six-month world explorer memberships from @ancestry – awesome!

Here’s how it works:
1. Follow @savefamilyphotos and @ancestry

2. Find a few favorite old family photos

3. Post them on Instagram from January 1st through January 10th with the hashtags savefamilyphotos and ancestry

4. Share as many photos as you can find!

5. Tag any family members in your photos.

We will select 3 winners to feature on @savefamilyphotos and
@ancestry Instagram feeds in January.

Plus, don’t forget that three lucky families will win six-month world explorer memberships from
@ancestry!
