Hi! My name is Clémence.
I founded Memoirs & More to help people like David (his book On & Off the Road was my first project!) write their memoirs and stop worrying that their stories will disappear when they do.
Think your memoirs are an ego trip? Think no one is going to care?
THINK AGAIN.
Every client I've had so far has been surprised by how meaningful and valuable their book turned out to be.
Most people don't know how to write or document their family. That's ok. We do. Curious about how I got into this? Click here to read about my experience and training, including my certification by the Birren Center for Autobiographical Studies, and leadership with Personal Historians Northeast Network.
I simply couldn't have
done it with anyone else.

Clémence is terrific. I loved working with her,
and the books we made.

Legacy Heirloom Books
Heirloom books meet your custom needs
Every custom book we produce represents your voice, your family, or your story. We do the heavy lifting so you can focus on how fun and meaningful it is to reflect on your life and your family.
We'll do all the writing and research, or take over where you left off. We create custom designs for your unique project needs. We then find the best printer and babysit it all as though it was our own book.
Capturing the essence of your family
Organizing family ancestry and stories can be overwhelming. Just figuring out where to start is hard.
-
Should I do a family tree?
-
How do I write my memoirs?
-
I want to scan and organize my photos to have an archive the whole family can access, but I don't know how.
-
How do I curate all these photos and create a proper family history book?
These questions and concerns come up all the time.
You are not alone. And there is no reason to muddle through it alone. From memoirs to photo books to custom maps to family heritage books and family trees, we will walk you through it.
That said, if you're motivated to try a project on your own, check out the DIY page of the blog for ideas and how-to's on family history projects.
The best thing to do? Give us a call.
We love to hear about people's projects. Call 215-645-7766 or email clemence@memoirsandmore.com to talk about your project needs.
