Content is King

Operating WalvoordHistory.com is an amazingly enjoyable hobby for me. Updating and adding new photos and stories is a simply a lot of fun.

I’ve had web developer friends look at the website and give pointers and advice on what I’m wanting to accomplish. They’ve been surprised on how extensive this website is, in number of pages, posts, and photos.

But as much content as there is, I know from my genealogy research that I have only scratched the surface and entire branches of the Walvoord and Walvoort Families are completely neglected!

For instance, I knew for years that Walvoords had settled in Nebraska, but had practically nothing on that branch as far as stories and pictures until Ann Walvoord Graff and Cindy Walvoord Lett sent in a wonderful treasure-trove of photos and biographies a few years back.

We are up to 46 photos in the Walvoord Wedding Photo Album and adding more pictures weekly as they are received.

Here’s some ideas that you can send in to contribute:

  • 2020 Walvoord Graduates Photos/News (or any year).
  • More Walvoord Wedding Photos
  • Anniversary Announcements/News
  • Obituaries
  • Birth Announcements and/or photos
  • Biography of your Walvoord Ancestor

Until I get a new email for this site (eta late 2020 or early 2021) send all content through our Facebook page or Messenger.

Here’s a look at new content added in the past few weeks:
