Every once in a while on our genealogical adventure, we come across something new and interesting.  This session is about something I, Paul Hendee, found on the internet while doing a Google search.

Ancient faces is an ancestor image sharing platform on the internet.  As you tell the story of an ancestor whose photo you have posted you actually begin to build a family tree with all of the people that person is connected to.  The website, http://ancientfaces.com has been around for about 20 years.  They have great tech support if needed and a YouTube video training channel.  I suggest you give them a try.  The site is great for sharing and involving family members in your genealogical quest.

Enjoy,

Paul

This is all about Memorial Day.  A day when we think about those who have given their lives in the name of freedom for our great country, the United States of America.  Many times people confuse this day with Veterans Day.  Always remember:  Al gave some - Some gave all.  This is about those who gave all.

So, enjoy a picnic or a beach party today.  Monday, take a minute around 3:00 P.M. wherever you are and think about our fallen.  Also, at the end of this podcast, is a special tribute to those brave men and women.

Enjoy,

This was a really good look at the myheritage.com platform.  Carolyn really knocked it out of the park with this one.  Great research with lots of great information.  Thanks, Carolyn, for all you do at familydigging.com .

Continuing on with our Genealogical Giants Series we bring you to Ancestry.  Ancestry, or ancestry.com is an incredibly large platform as it continues to purchase more genealogical assets and other genealogical platforms.  In this episode Carolyn Lancaster and Paul Hendee bring you through the ins and outs of this behemoth Genealogical platform.

Our next in this series will be Genealogical Giants Pt 3 - My Heritage.

This is the first in our series of the Genealogical Giants on the internet.  Family Search has got to be one of the giants.  In this episode Carolyn Lancaster and Paul Hendee will introduce you to Family Search.  We'll be reviewing many of the ins and outs of the familysearch.org platform.  The great parts of the platform and some of the things you should know about the platform before you register for an account.

Next up in this series will be ancestry.com - A real giant among giants.

This is the first in a series of our podcast that will review Original Sources.  Original sources that can firmly prove your findings in your family tree.  This is a multiple part series.  We hope you will enjoy.  Also, feel free to visit and subscribe to our Family Digging Podcast Blog.  When here you can read the transcripts to our podcasts and click on any of the links we may mention in a podcast for easy access.
