Here are some Genealogy Family Fun things you can do using your free account at FamilySearch! Once you are logged in, head over to the Discoveries page here: https://www.familysearch.org/en/discovery/


They have a lot of things to choose from, here are some of my favorites!

My Match


This is the quickest one! Take a short quiz to find out which person in history shares your personality traits!

Where Am I From?

Clicking on this one will open up a map showing where all of your ancestors came from, grouped together!

Famous Relatives

Are you related to anyone famous like some people find out on Finding Your Roots? This searches your online tree to see so be sure to have some ancestors loaded first!

Compare A Face

Are there pictures of people in the Family Tree that look like you? Which famous person do you resemble? Upload a picture to find out!





If your family is on Spring Break anytime soon and those kids get bored, this might be a fun way to get them interested in family research! Of course, you can access these anytime, not just during school breaks.


I'll be learning lots of new things at RootsTech this weekend. Maybe I'll see you there online! In the meantime, if I can help you with your tree, send me an email and let's talk. I love doing free evaluations and investigating new mysteries!


Kind regards,
