B2Y, what a wonderful idea! I have some "heirloom" pieces ...more like oddball things ... that only have meaning to me, but they came from my grandparents home. My sons would never know that the glass door knob that sits on the bookshelf was once on my grandparents front door. I have Aunt Vera's rose bead necklace. No one alive now remembers her because she died in the 1920's at 18 years of age. I really need to identify this stuff for my sons to have to pass on the stories.
