​With recent wintry weather and storms across the country, it is perfect weather for learning and genealogy. As February is flying by, it seems like a great time to remind you of RootsTech 2025.
The dates this year are March 6-8, 2025. If you haven’t registered yet, you could join the free online registration and map out the classes that you are most interested in to stream. And lucky you if you are going in person to enjoy this event.
 
Here are two sites to help you:
What to Expect from FamilySearch in 2025  As part of RootsTech you’ll learn about innovative technologies. With this blog on FamilySearch you’ll learn about new features on the FamilySearch site itself including the use of AI in complete word search for documents that have not been indexed yet. I’ve tried this with some of the Canadian land documents in their “lab” site and it is amazing. I had found these documents the old-fashioned way using land indexes and searching manually. How much more efficient to search on my ancestor’s name! Check it out.

https://www.familysearch.org/en/rootstech/ You can register here plus find out about speakers and classes available. With March just around the corner, take some time to plan your opportunities of learning.
 
I hope you’ve taken some time this winter to learn new genealogy skills. Check out RootsTech as another opportunity!
