MyHeritage releases SuperSearch: a state-of-the-art search engine for family history

The following is from MyHeritage.

MyHeritage releases SuperSearch - a state of the art search engine for family history

Cutting-edge search engine powers breakthrough discoveries, adds color to family history and establishes the popular family network as a leading player in the historical content market

PROVO, Utah & LONDON & TEL AVIV, Israel – June 25, 2012: MyHeritage, the most popular family network on the web, today announced the official launch of SuperSearch, a powerful new family history search engine for helping families around the world discover historical records and long-lost relatives. Packed with the industry’s most international source of historical content and family trees, SuperSearch (www.myheritage.com/research) is capable of searching billions of records within seconds. With a simple and contemporary user experience, clever search features, a massive library of content including one billion global family tree profiles, the world’s largest collection of historical newspapers, and flexible pay-as-you-go or subscription payment options, SuperSearch raises the bar and provides new value and choice for family history fans.

With more than 63 million registered users, MyHeritage has become the trusted home on the web for families wishing to explore their family history, share memories and stay connected. The official launch of SuperSearch, which has been in Beta since April 2012, reaffirms MyHeritage’s position as a leading provider of historical records, following the company’s recent acquisition of WorldVitalRecords and FamilyLink, appointment of former Footnote.com Founder and CEO Russ Wilding to lead content growth, and initiative to provide a free searchable index for the 1940 U.S. Census. 

Number one online destination for global research

Available in 38 languages, SuperSearch is the industry’s most multilingual family history search engine, breaking down geographical and language barriers in genealogy research. SuperSearch automatically translates and searches possible initials, synonyms and spelling variations. For example a search for William will also catch Bill, Vilhelm, Guillaume, Guglielmo and many other variations, even when written in other alphabets such as Russian or Hebrew. This increases the chances of finding valuable information within the huge hoards of content on MyHeritage without requiring users to try such variations themselves.

Content highlights

With a powerful mix of historical records and user-generated information in family trees on MyHeritage, SuperSearch helps family history enthusiasts break through brick walls in their research and add color to their family history. The more than 4 billion records on MyHeritage provide worldwide coverage, with strong collections in the USA, UK, Ireland, Australia and Canada. Some record collections are exclusive to MyHeritage, and all this is augmented by content licensed from important third-party databases. Users can find birth, marriage, death, burial, census, military, immigration, yearbooks and other types of records, and view scans of original documents. SuperSearch includes the world’s largest historical newspaper collection (currently about 120 million pages dating back to the 18th century), the 1930 and 1940 US census records, all UK censuses between 1841 and 1901 and the content from MyHeritage-owned family history websites, WorldVitalRecords and FamilyLink.

“SuperSearch represents a watershed innovation in the family history industry,” said Founder and CEO of MyHeritage, Gilad Japhet. “It transforms family history into an experience that is more global, accessible and engaging than ever before. Within a few minutes, you can unravel family mysteries - discover your great-aunt on a passenger list to Ellis Island, find your long-lost branch of the family in a family tree in Brazil or locate the photo of your great-grandfather’s gravestone in England.  Complementing our expertise in community family tree building, SuperSearch helps fulfill our goal of connecting families to each other and to their past, and does so in full color, with photos, videos and documents. We're adding millions of new records and family tree profiles every day, which, together with the imminent launch of Record Matching, makes SuperSearch an indispensable tool for family history fans around the world.”

 SuperSearch features:
• Easily search for historical records of any person by first name and/or last name, with optional dates or places.
• Search also by keywords, events, relationships and other advanced criteria.
• Find people without even knowing their last names, for example, find three brothers in the same family using only their first names and relationship as siblings, or find all people born on a certain date or in a certain town.
• Run a global search to cover all data collections at once, or drill down to search only in one collection or one category.
• SuperSearch is smart enough to figure out the likely gender of the person you're trying to find.
• Choose between a mode that shows all results, and a summary mode that shows the count of matches from each collection.
• Results arrive fast, typically within a second, ranked by relevance.
• Refine results by collection or by any other common criteria.

Search on-the-go via MyHeritage mobile app

Users can utilize SuperSearch on-the-go with the latest version of the MyHeritage Mobile App for  iPhone & iPadand Android. With anywhere, anytime access to billions of records, SuperSearch on the MyHeritage App is ideal for introducing family history to friends and family and for fun moments at family reunions.

Access to records

SuperSearch is open to all and requires no registration. Search result lists are displayed for free. Full access to individual records is provided for free for complimentary content, such as the 1940 U.S. Census and the US Social Security Death Index. To access other, paid-only content, MyHeritage gives users maximum choice via affordable pay-as-you-go credits and data subscription plans at prices that are 75% less expensive than competing services.

Coming soon – Record Matching for automatic discoveries

In the coming weeks, MyHeritage will announce the launch of Record Matching on SuperSearch – a powerful and innovative feature that automatically compares family tree profiles and historical records to each other to find matches, with a high degree of accuracy.

RootsTech 2013 Call for Presentations

The following is from RootsTech.

Call for Presentations 
March 21-23, 2013 | Salt Lake City, Utah

 

The third annual RootsTech Conference will bring together thought leaders and consumers of all skill levels who want to share and experience the latest trends in genealogy and technology. Building on the success and growth of previous years, RootsTech 2013 will reach thousands of participants on site and around the world. RootsTech includes engaging, interactive sessions that promote learning and the free exchange of ideas on using technology to improve the way genealogy is done. The conference provides many opportunities to simplify and improve the family history experience for those just getting started to those who are advanced genealogists.

We are looking for unique presentations that address the specific ways in which technology can be used by all levels of genealogists (beginner to advanced). The focus for developers will be the latest resources and techniques needed to create and contribute to innovative applications and systems in the family history industry. We invite proposals that address technology challenges and solutions that have the potential to improve family history and genealogical research. Additional consideration will be given to proposals that provide hands-on or interactive experiences, with presenters giving step-by-step approaches and live demonstrations for using technology for genealogy, including tips and helps for using software, hardware, web-based solutions, etc. Since RootsTech is designed as an interactive conference, traditional lectures depending entirely on text-based slides are discouraged. 

Possible sessions for genealogists include:

• Introduction to various technology solutions for genealogists with minimal tech experience
• Online sites and services for getting started
• Solutions for saving, accessing and sharing data  
• Publishing and sharing family history online
• Tools for online collaboration and community projects
• Using popular applications for family history
• Reaching and engaging new genealogists through technology
• Tips for successful online research
• Organizing files and data to support good conclusions  

 

Possible sessions for developers include:  

• GPS and geo-mapping ancestral locations
• Applications for mobile devices
• Social applications
• Standards and APIs
• Records imaging and tree visualization
• Gamification of family history experiences
• Cloud-based solutions for saving, accessing, and sharing data 

Submissions are due by June 15, 2012, with an extended deadline of October 15, 2012 for limited, late-breaking technology research submissions.

 

Types of Sessions

1. Presentations: Classroom settings that engage participants. 
2. Panels or Discussions: Formal panels of experts discussing specific topics, led by a facilitator. 
3. Hands-on Workshops: Labs where attendees have hands-on experience in a specific task or objective. 
4. Unconferencing: Informal, participant-led discussion groups. 

 

Submission Information

Proposals will be accepted online at rootstech.org from May 9, 2012 through June 15, 2012.  Syllabus materials will be due from participating presenters on October 1, 2012 (other than late-breaking proposals).

While there is no monetary compensation, RootsTech presenters will receive a complimentary conference registration and a syllabus. Speakers from out-of-state selected to present three or more lectures will also receive hotel accommodations.

Genealogy Hacks: Tricks to Crack the Top Genealogy Web Sites
If you regularly return to the same Web sites and repeat the same old searches without finding much, it's time to give your search an overhaul. Get out of that rut and finally find your ancestors-with these "hacks" for effectively mining the Internet's most-frequented family history stops.

Native American Ancestry: A DNA Standpoint
Many genealogists from the Americas wonder if they have Native American ancestry, but are often unable to confirm it based on genealogical records. DNA might provide such evidence.

Kerry Bartels
Wednesday, July 18 (evening schedule)
Neither Filmed or Scanned: NARA Treasurers Await
This session will discuss examples of original records with great genealogical value in the National Archives that exist only in their original format. Most of these records are rarely used by genealogists and some have never been used for genealogy. The discussion will also provide information about obtaining copies of the records.

George G. Morgan
Saturday, August 4 (morning/afternoon schedule)
The Genealogist as CSI
Modern genealogists are much like the crime scene investigators - CSIs - that we see on television. They must be skilled investigators. They must use all available tools to locate clues and evidence. And they must employ proven methodologies and their critical thinking skills to document and evaluate every type of resource they find. They must be able to communicate their findings. This seminar analogizes genealogists with CSIs and describes the genealogical research and evaluation process. It provides a methodological framework for all types of research.

Wednesday, August 15 (evening schedule)
Women's Work
There's no doubt that tracing female ancestors can be difficult. We make a lot of assumptions about the lives of women, some of which may not be true. In this presentation we will look at the occupations, including volunteer work, women held in 19th century America and what records they left behind. Whether your ancestress was employed or not, the repositories and collections we discuss will help you research your female ancestor.

Denise Spurlock
Saturday, September 1 (morning/afternoon schedule)
Butcher, Baker, Candlestick Maker. Researching Your Ancestors' Occupations
Labor Day Special:  It's likely not all your ancestors were farmers.  This session will explore strategies for researching how your ancestors made a living: what they did, where, why, and for whom.

Wednesday, September 19 (evening schedule)
