Thanks bunches. Many many years ago I used PAF. I got outstanding support from Family Search chat. I think she was surprised how large my tree was when she unlocked it for my continued use. She also helped me fix a situation where as my cousins have the wrong mother and change her to a step mother. I want to make sure I take the time to thank you for pushing me back to such a great place for genealogy.

I didn't know about that, Connie. Thanks for the video. I really enjoyed you getting a kick out of that photo gadget.

[jackiemedeiros]

I'm going over to Family Search right now....how fun is this! Thank you for another great video.

[elohrey]

Thank you for sharing! I have never thought to check out the Activities tab. The view my heritage section looks like a wonderful resource for learning about an ancestral homeland in a fun and inspiring way beyond the information in the research wiki.

Thanks Connie, that was very interesting! And fun!!!

[elohrey]

I was just introduced to the research communities on FamilySearch a few days ago by Anell, a consultant at the FamilySearch Library in SLC. The research communities section is given when you click on the ? Tab in the upper right corner. Another tool on FamilySearch that might be interesting to explore.

So awesome, I knew about several of them but not about some, now I'm off running to try them!

[marykowalski]

This was awesome and I laughed with you. I find this work sometimes frustrating so now I have a way to relieve any stress I am feeling.

[cindycarrasco]

Wow Connie that was great video...didn't know about those tools definitely have to check it out...thanks!!!

[jerrywalker]

Thanks I did not know about all those tools! Wow

[wendybond]

Fantastic. I probably wouldn’t have realised all of those features were there.

[kaybobbitt]

Fun video. There is so much to learn here.

[kathleenkelley]

Fun Episode! I gave it a try and No surprise to find 70% Ireland 30% USA. Thanks for making me aware of this fun section of FamilySearch

[Ziggicam]

Those are cool tools!! Thanks for sharing them!!

[deelynrae]

😄 I never knew any of this. Thank you for the information.

[junebutka]

Great tips. I always learn something new.

[aprilrowland]

Thank you for sharing! I always forget to check out the other tabs. Enjoyed playing with some of the activities. My only wish is that I could use the "Where am I from?" activity for my husband, without him having an account.

Nice video! I like how you always share with us the new tools for these websites. Just wanted to give you an idea for a new video. A few days ago the New York City Municipal Archives just released a huge digitization project regarding NYC birth, marriage, and death certificates. They have many of these documents for free! Check it out! I'm sure many of your viewers would be very excited to learn about this new info.

Not sure what I'm doing wrong. I click on activities, then where am I from and I'm asked to click on my country. I click the US and am taken to food. Help?!?
