I have been a 12 year user of Family Tree Maker and Ancestry. I have been having trouble using Family Search from their site. This presentation gives me hope that with some more presentations Family Search may help me find more answers to my brick walls. Informative session. Thankyou! #chooseconnection
Love the new items but would love it if we could see the pages you are referring to in full screen when on FamilySearch as per the rest of the presentation.
Enjoyed learning about this new feature very much. I do wish you would record your videos using your full screen instead of recording them with your face in the window. We would be able to see your computer screen more clearly and larger and the distraction of your movements would be eliminated. Thank you for listening.
I am looking for anyone with the name Dotherow. Maybe up north in Butte Co. and family was from Washington Co., AR. , Roland Young. There was a Mary Matilda Young M to Joel Dotherow. Thanks
This was a great lecture. However, I was not able to see new discovery pages. Questions: Do I need to sign up for a new account even if I have an account already to see new feature? Is this feature only accessible from google or will my people in family search tree look like this? Thank you for clarifying. Carol
Unable to locate ancestor discovery page when following your directions. When I use the link on the blog page, I do not find ancestors listed. Am I confused?
Try this link, ancestors.familysearch.org/en/ and this blog article explains more about the experience, www.familysearch.org/blog/en/ancestor-discovery-page/
I tried to put my ancestor's name on google with his dates to get his new person page and it didn't work for me. Do I have to design that page on Family Search some how first? I really enjoyed this presentation but would like some help with this! Thank you! Brian

This is great My parents showed up. My father in law does not nor several other family members. I am not sure if I am doing something wrong. I google ancestors.familysearch.org Ancestors Name Birthyear-Deathyear I am only trying those who are marked as deceased on FamilySearch and the name is exactly the same. Any ideas?
