As I don't have the steamer trunk of history to be behind on. It is a terror-inducing task to take on. I keep trying to find someone in the Seattle area who might be willing to do something appropriate with it for you (scan it all? I dunno), and coming up with almost exactly nothing (there's someone in North Carolina who will do family document conservation stuff for hire -- that's a perfect example of being Southern enough to engage in the activity, and Northern enough to turn it into a business. Ah, stereotypes.).
