FamilySearch Tree

I have been researching my family history for almost 20 years. In the beginning I was using Family Search and Your Folks; a French genealogy database. But the names are so different in French to English and for a time, I paid for Ancestry until it got too expensive, so I stopped doing research. It has been some years since I used Family Search. Now, I am excited about doing genealogy all over again. It is a new beginning for me now that I moved after my husband died of Covid 4 years ago. I find all sorts of new ways to research my legacy on Family Search that make researching so much better. Yes, I am not saying that there is nothing new to learn- there is, but it has been less than a day and I have already learned so much. The New Family Search is wonderful! It must have taken ages to complete the new platform for users. I am one person who says a huge Thank You shout out to all who contributed to making Family Search a "state-of-the-art" depository for all mankind. And as a retired person, it whittles the day away, I get so involved in learning new information about all who have gone before me. Keep up the good work. I can't wait to see and experience your new changes! Margaret aka Meg S San Souci-Umphrey

Is there any way that you can make it possible to Copy the relationship on anyone you find that is related . In relationship can you make the font larger so you can read the relation to me up top it would make it easier on the iPhone! Why is it that my famous relatives are only posted for a short period of time?? Will AI be used soon on helping Researching one’s family and relatives with the latest in technology? Why is it you can only add so many researchers contacts to chat to?? When you find relatives records abroad why can’t they be read as you can with records from the States?? Why can you only see up to the 13th Great Grandparents?? What’s involved in taking your family history and genealogy and relatives and pictures and records and published in a hard back book and if you need so many what is the cost per book and do you put the book together as a completed products? Just curious some time in the future I would be interested in having so many published as heirlooms for my family?? Will you be able to colorize and repair old black and white pictures in the near future by familysearch?? Thank you for taking my questions in consideration in order to enhance familysearch asap!!

This is an amazing way to learn about your ancestors and yourself. The first time I used the tree maker I was able to see my family history and find people that I never knew about. Pioneers,leaders, and other family members who were able to make a difference to the people around them. It has given me inspiration and pride for all the family that has gone before me. My husband and I are working together on our family history and he has shown me how to look for information. The tools provided by Family tree are easy to use and research is becoming easier. My dad did family history and back then it was a lot more difficult. He left me a treasure trove of information and family pictures that I have been blessed to have! They make it so much easier to connect with my family stories! It’s great to see the faces and see the pictures of their lives. The LDS is an excellent source for information. I have been so impressed how they have tried to keep records for future generations. Hopefully someday my grandchildren will be interested in the family history and work we have done with Family Search will be of benefit for them. I have gotten a lot of joy from learning about my family history and still have a long way to go. What an adventure it will be!
