This week, our guest is Patrick Brady. Patrick is passionate about gathering his family history and stories. As Patrick started to look at the marketplace, he recognized that there wasn’t a service or platform that would allow building a central location to preserve that unique family history and enable the family to make it their own truly.
At Heritage HQ, each family gets its unique domain to upload and create files that can be shared and edited. The family website or domain will contain a family tree and records of birthdates, genealogy, and essential documents. Each family will have a Heritage Helper to assist family members with the technology used and create an individualized family newsletter.
Heritage HQ helps to build bridges between generations in several ways, including helping family members record in-person, video, and audio interviews. This is an excellent way for young family members to discover the stories of their grandparents, aunts, uncles, and others and learn about the challenges and triumphs of those family members and close family friends.
Some of the other services that a family can use with their Heritage HQ account are:
- Photo Organizer
- Social Media Hub/ Integration
- Digitization services – copying those printed photos into an electronic format
You will enjoy learning more about Heritage HQ, Patrick’s experience working as a professor in China, and how that experience helped shape his thoughts about capturing family stories.
