Videos, Tutorials, and More on FamilySearch.org

One of the best places to get free genealogy help online is FamilySearch.org, the powerful website run by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Salt Lake City. St. Louis Genealogical Society frequently offers classes on using this popular, free site, so keep an eye open for the next class, but in the meantime, here are some parts of the site you might want to explore on your own.

Like many websites, there is much behind the scenes here, including millions of digital records and family trees, but an under-utilized area of the website that has great value to researchers is hidden under the Help tab at the top right of the home screen.
