Welcome to the Freedom Center’s New Genealogy Notebook!
Our genealogy notebook is designed for YOU. Your questions and comments will drive our discussions.
The Family Search Center relies on volunteers. These volunteers serve visitors from all across the United States helping them to begin their genealogical journey. However, since most visitors are with us only a short time we propose continuing this relationship and starting others through our blog. We’ll start the discussion with our comments and insights. You can add your own insights and questions. Also, please post your genealogy research questions here so that we may give you some paths to follow so you can more easily find your answers.
