Hello Valerie, Not sure where you mean by " Home" so will guess you are still in the Hawaii'n Islands. My suggestion would be ,once you finish with the photographic project upload the digital files to a photo sharing sharing site like Flicker. Then you could contact Cheri about sharing the link. Some of the materials you listed may also be of interest to local Portuguese Clubs if they have Historical displays and could be placed on loan in your Grand Mothers name, the same would go for items of Military significance in regards to a Military Museum. In regards to safeguarding the originals of Historical and as far as I am concerned Family Significance I would contact someone at the local museum, and ask about safe storage and display methods. Hope this helps.
