My Japanese Family Stories
家族の物語 — 名前、場所、記憶、そして受け継がれた知恵を記録するジャーナル
Your family's history deserves to be recorded — in your words, for the people who come after.
Someone from a Japanese family who wants to record the names, places, memories, and inherited wisdom of the generations who came before them.
The Name It First Experience
Japanese families carry histories that span generations — of migration, of war, of internment, of rebuilding, of the particular traditions that persisted through all of it. Much of that history is held by people, not preserved in archives. This journal is built to help you record it: the names, the places, the stories, the recipes, the things your family knows that have never been formally written down. My Japanese Family Stories is a living record of your family — made by you, for the people who come after.
You can opt into 30-, 60-, and 90-day check-ins from your account. We recommend you do — the point is to see what changed.
Sample questions
- What did your family carry through the hardest period in its history that didn't break?
- What Japanese tradition or practice does your family still keep — and who is it that keeps it alive?
- What's the story about your family that was too hard to tell when it happened but deserves to be recorded now?
