Free Family History Research Help During RootsTech 2021


I recently saw the exciting news that there will be free family research help as part of RootsTech 2021: https://www.familysearch.org/wiki/en/RootsTech_Connect_Research_Help. You can receive help in two primary ways:

Group sessions, which will be held generally between midnight and 7am Japan time, are being offered on the following topics:

  • British Isles
  • Nordic Countries
  • Asian Countries
  • Germany
  • Latin American Countries
  • US and Canada
  • FamilySearch Research Wiki
  • Digital Library
For the personal online consultations, the point is to get more customized help so there is a huge variety topics you can choose from. Consultations, which are mostly available in the mornings Japan time, are offered in four languages: English, Spanish, Portuguese, and Chinese (presumably Mandarin). One extra fantastic part of this opportunity is that the online consultations are available between February 18th and 28th!!! I hope many people will be able to take advantage of this great opportunity.

#GiveThanks Day 6

  Thought for Day 6: I'm grateful for the opportunity to learn from my ancestors. I've found stories of faith, courage, and success. I have also found stories of less than ideal choices. I don't judge my ancestors. None of us are perfect. We all have struggles. Both the good and the bad stories from my family history challenge me to rise to the best within myself. They highlight the need to continually hold to truth and right. I'm thankful that the stories have been saved--and I can share them as "memories" on  FamilySearch --so that I can continue to learn from my ancestors. #GiveThanks

#GiveThanks Day 7

Thought for Day 7: I'm thankful for the commandments of God. They aren't always easy to obey. They require discipline and we can always improve our obedience. But as we continue to put our best efforts towards keeping the commandments of God, we are blessed with greater peace, joy, and stability. Keeping the commandments also qualify us for other blessings, including access to holy temples. #GiveThanks

#GiveThanks Day 3

  Thought for Day 3: I'm thankful for the peace I feel when I am in a temple. The temple has always been a peaceful place for me but I think that it has become more and more peaceful the more years I have attended. When I visit a temple, it calms my worries and settles me. I think this is another of the great blessings of having temples upon the earth. #GiveThanks
