Mike has sorted through the chaff and has found the heart of the problem. People don't read so well
On the basis of reading the question properly I will add this
Communication is the most important aspect of family history...whether it be myth or truth. We seem to be limited to the communication styles we take for granted. Writing, taping=oral or pictures/videoing=visual. Yet there are a few other ways to present a family story
Find out what each can do in the way of skill sets ie knitting or crocheting and getting them to knit/crochet a rug of the people that have populated their lives. Others may have favourite recipes they attach to certain family members. So get them to do a recipe with a background story of the person who first gave it to them.
Some may have craft skills or painting. These are all means of communication. The secret is to find what each individual will do without thinking it is work
