Short duration with employers

I have been a dedicated employee but have a short duration with 4 separate employers due to the company being purchased. Divisions or my position were eliminated. This in conjunction with my age ( 56) makes finding a potion where I can contribute very difficult. I am working hard at finding a position but almost at a point of starting my own company despite limited funds. Any advice? Was considering putting re-organization or realignment by my end date on resume(s). Identifying short duration and reason in cover letters?

Charlie Graff One suggestion is to develop a career-focused resume rather than a chronological, job-history-focused one. This article has some great ideas: https://www.monster.com/career-advice/article/functional-resume-break-tradition
