Start by sorting the photos chronologically. Any other sorting option is just too confusing and crazy-making. Think big picture by dividing first into two piles according to century. Next sort each pile by decade—even if that requires a wild guess—and so on until you have them in general order.

Learn More »Let’s see by a show of hands how many have at least one box crammed full of old family photographs out in the garage, up in the attic, or down in the basement. Look at that. Hands going up all over the room. I’m guessing that anyone over the age of 20 knows what I’m talking about. Old family photos. Most of us have boxes filled with modern color prints capturing every moment of our immediate family history. Or even an old trunk filled with photos of ancestors known only from their venerable photographs. But that’s not all. Boxed-up life events and family history are likely even more precious today than they were decades ago. We’re not sure what to do with all of these photos but we’re not about to get rid of them, either. So mostly we do nothing. Maybe it’s time to stop doing nothing. Dear Mary: I have a large trunk full of family photos dating from the early 1900s. How would you organize these? By dates? By persons? I am the only one left who is old enough to remember all of these people, but I think my children and descendants will be interested. It seems quite a task, and I don’t really know how to start. Thanks, Sue Dear Sue: Start by getting a number of archival quality, acid-free photo-storage boxes. You can find photo-storage boxes at stores like Joann, Michaels, and Amazon. Pioneer is a well-known brand of acid-free photo boxes that come with metal identification plates and index cards, but there are others. Just make sure the boxes you get are clearly marked as “acid-free.” This will slow down or even halt further deterioration of the paper on which these photos were printed. Nice photo boxes come in a variety of colors and stack easily, making it convenient for others to enjoy the photos, too. To me, acid-free photo-storage boxes are so much better than traditional photo albums. They help protect your loose pictures from the damage that can be caused by light, as well as the harmful chemicals found in developing envelopes, older photo albums, and cardboard shoe boxes. Stay away from plastic storage containers as these can trap moisture, which is a big photo no-no.

Next sort each pile by decade—even if that requires a wild guess—and so on until you have them in general order. Sort directly into your photo boxes if possible, removing pictures from developing envelopes and plastic bags, keeping the negatives, if any, with the photographs. They will be helpful in the next step. Take the time now to toss any duplicate prints and blurry shots. If you don’t know the exact dates of pictures, you can often find clues such as printer codes on the backs of the pictures or even the hairstyles of the people in the photo.
