FamilySearch continues to evolve in the way you can search for records.  With over 100 million searchable records, that include U.S. land and probate records, plus Mexican notarial records, learning the best search method is critical.  This presentation will look at how they are using Artificial Intelligence to help you find the records you need on your ancestor.  In addition, we will review their digital library with over 600,000 digitized, searchable books and serials.

When we meet, RootsTech 2025 will have occurred.  I’m sure there will be additional “news” to bring to you from that event about changes and updates on FamilySearch. You will walk away with a new comfort level using the website and finding your documents.
 
Registration:  Whether you're planning to attend online or in person at the Carriage House, you'll need to register for the meeting which is free for everyone. The registration link will be available in the middle of March.
