It is easy to brand everything trash, but there are things that may be historical or precious. I have my grandmother’s hand stamped plate, created in the 1700s, as well as a significant painting and a few other quality items
not easily identified as valuable. Boomers need to have these things of value identified so that their kids don’t accidentally throw out their inheritance!
My wife is an only child and has a Masters in Home Ec. She got all the historical stuff and all the quilts, some of whom go back to the 1800’s.
Some of the farm stuff went to the county museum along with some quilts. But we have probably 80 handmade quilts. I sleep under a torn blanket we got at Walmart. Just sayin’.
