Top-10 List - 12-19-21.jpg

There are thousands of incredible people, groups, tools and services that can help you with YOUR Family Tree and 200-Year Challenge.   

 

Most are free services run by Volunteers - or are extremely good values.

To make your life easier and to fast-track your experience, we’ve narrowed this huge list down to the Top-10 Tools and Services to get you started. 

These Top-10 Tools and Services

will delight and amaze you!

These Top-10 Tools and Services will save you hundreds of hours by teaching you the inside secrets on searching the BILLIONS of records and then saving your data so you can find them again!

 

These Top-10 Tools and Services will give you the confidence to jump in and do the projects you've been wanting to do for many years - like scanning the big, dusty boxes of photos in your attic, or even a surprise company that can digitize your old home movies - the ones no one has seen in decades!   

 

When you start seeing the results of your efforts, you will be inspired even more!

 

A FEW NOTES :

 

The first three choices were easy - these are the biggest research sites.   They each have their own databases with Billions of records that you will only find on their website.   When you hit a "Brick Wall", and can't find any info on a Mom or Dad, try one of the other Big-3.

 

Nobody in the Top-10 List paid to be included on this list and we do not receive a commission if you go to any of their websites.   

 

There are a LOT of links to explore - please let us know if any of the links do not work and we will fix them right away.
