Discovering Something New

I'm working at the Alpine Family History Center right now and I just learned something new. I was talking to our director Paul Mecham about how our computers were all logged out of the Family History Center subscription to Ancestry.com. That is when I learned that the Family History Centers are now actively using the new URL Ancestry.com has set up for their private access. I knew that was going to happen but I didn't realize it was a reality. So if you are like me and didn't know that, here is the URL you want to use when trying to access the databases available to FHCs: www.ancestryinstitution.com

See ya tomorrow, for tomorrow is alway another genealogy day.

Free 10 day Access to Fantastic Databases

It's time to go back and visit WorldVitalRecords.com's website. They just had a 100 Database Weekend. They posted online some of the collection they acquired through their partnership with Quintin Publications. This collection of databases contains registers, visitations, family histories, pedigrees, obituaries, grants and notices. WorldVitalRecords.com allows everyone free access to these databases for the first 10 days.

See ya tomorrow, for tomorrow is always another genealogy day!

DNA Data Added to Ancestry Website

The Deseret News this morning just broke the exciting news that The Generations Network, Inc. (Ancestry) is parterning with Sorenson Genomics (Relative Genetics). This partnership will help people use DNA technology to conduct genealogical research. If you are already a customer of Relative Genetics your DNA will now become part of Ancestry's databases. Ancestry will also start marketing the ability for others to include their DNA into Ancesty's searchable databases. Officials of both companies say the partnership is a milestone and "revolutionary" venture for the DNA genealogy field.
