The Fiedler Local History Archive

Share your memories.

Attic photographs, old clippings, stories your family still tells — the archive grows one shoebox at a time, with full credit to the people who share.

How it works

Tell us what you have — this form takes two minutes. No need to upload anything yet.
We reply by email — usually within a day or two, from a real person at the office. That's when you attach your photos or scans (phone pictures of an old print work fine).
We do the archivist work — dating, crediting, writing it up. You approve the words before anything appears.

Every entry credits its source — "From the collection of…" — and nothing is published without your OK. Original photos stay yours; we only need a scan or a picture of them.

Thank you — your story is at the archive desk. Watch your inbox: we'll reply from the office, and that's the moment to send your photos (just attach them to your reply). Nothing gets published without you seeing it first.

Your name

Email (so we can reply — this is where you'll send photos)

What do you have? (a short title — e.g. "Main Street in the snow, about 1958")

Which town?

From when, roughly?

The story (who, where, what you remember — the way you'd tell it at the kitchen table)

Who should we credit? (e.g. "The Miller family collection" — or "keep me anonymous")
