How much do you know about your family history? Each of our individual family lines contains so much more than just dates and names. There are countless experiences, stories and photos associated with every individual—and each of those elements is worth preserving.

Alexander’s is headquartered in Utah and each July 24th our state commemorates its founding by remembering and honoring those settlers who came to the valley in 1847 and helped to create the state of Utah. As we join our fellow Utahans in celebrating Pioneer Day, we’ve given some thought to how we can help our customers and followers remember their past and honor the history of their own lives and those that came before them.

We’ve found that preserving memories with a photo or memory book allows you to personalize your stories, photos and memories in a unique way. Many of our customers choose to focus only on family photos. Others create rich history books with birth certificates, immigration documents, family portraits and personal histories.

We also love genealogy books because they make great gifts for family members. How much more valuable is a personalized gift that can be cherished for generations? You can always print multiple copies for your children or grandchildren to serve as a loving reminder of who they are and where they come from.

The beauty of a photo or memory book like this is that you can print these on a variety of different papers, and bind them any way you like. We see a lot of customers order leather bound and gold embossed covers, but perfect bound books also make a for a beautiful finished book.
