FamilySearchReviews of familysearch.org

Grazie a FamilySearch ho potuto trovare tantissime informazioni nei registri ai quali ho gratuitamente. Ho potuto rintracciare praticamente tutta la famiglia di mio padre e i legami con le altre famiglie del paese di provenienza e quelli limitrofi. Con il sistema di suggerimenti automatici invece ho potuto espandere il ramo di mia madre, fino a scoprire un ramo che non conoscevo emigrato in America nel dopo guerra. Decisamente consigliato, il migliore strumento gratuito online che potrete trovare. Piccolo consiglio: se avete un grande albero tenete sempre una copia salvata anche online con software come Rootsmagic per essere sicuri di non perdere mai niente, ma continuare a sfruttare al massimo le funzionalità di FamilySearch

FamilySearch allows me to search a number of historical records and every week they add many new records. One other good tool is their hints email which automatically send me names of people who I may be related to and are not connected to my tree.

I'm surprised at all the bad reviews. I'm happy. Found a lot of ansesters from the 1700s I thought I'd never find. Being so old. I'm on find my past as well. I use both. I've been doing this on and off for years. So this is just trying up lose ends. Never bothered with the on line tree. Only interested in information.

FamilySearch is a brilliant free website for compiling your Family Tree and finding historical records and data. The main complaint from people seems to be that others can edit the tree (as it's a global shared collaborative tree, not your personal private tree) and that ancestors can't be 'deleted', but this is a GOOD thing! This means everyone has access to information about our ancestors and that information about real people doesn't just get selfishly destroyed when someone decides they don't want to use this site anymore. Individual people do not "own" their ancestors - even a few generations back, ancestors could have links to hundreds of living people and I don't understand why people think that they have the right to keep research and information about ancestors to themselves when so many others will be related too. The more people use FamilySearch, the more accurate the information will become! More people should use it!

I am a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Even if I wasn't, I would still be interested in using FamilySearch. It truly is the best (I mainly use FamilySearch and supplement with other services such as Ancestry, etc.). The layout is quite simple, the graphics are nice, there is a lot to do to further the work of the Lord in connecting families, among other religious practices within the Church.

As a 10 plus year member there is no better free genealogy research site out there. You can also be a part of their online indexing service. I have found a few family members in my few years of indexing. because there are so many people helping with the indexing familysearch.org remains free to all and in some cases there are source papers added to the family members. There is an old saying "Try it you'll like it". Have fun researching

familysearch.org is one of the best genealogy sites out there. And it is free to everyone. It is constantly changing and improving and a great place to share your genealogy with others.
