Last year I started my family Tree and Family Search has updated how to find and match each ancestor. They show two people with the same name or similar name which has to be edited so it is one of them is really your ancestor or is not then can ask for documentation to add to your memories. This is a fast process you need to take as much time to under you can find verification anywhere sometimes Family Search will speed it up if you have more than six generations with proof and they will congratulate you for having that many generations going back to the beginnings of push country the United States For example my grandmother was born in England and the exact town too growing up I had to visit her twice a year she was nice to me but she never gave me a Christmas card or a present. My Father tried to tell me what things she purposely did to the Family this family tree is about the name I was given at birth this the ancestors I have lived with all my life till the day I die and that is The Ball Family who had many remark able successful women and men you gave their gifts of of intelligence the gifted and talented thrived in North East Ohio only minutes from where I grew up and easy documentation begins at Historical Lakeview Cemetery. I do have a problem with the cemetery they buried my father next to my mother he had left her and lived another woman till he died then when she died cemetery buried next to him and his son who did it work or save money for his final day on earth never saved a penny to buy his own cemetery plot I objected to this .I wanted to be buried with my mother and sister.
Great for Keeping Precious Memories

I love to store precious moments in this app from stories from our children’s growing up years that we might treasure later. Also, there are just some things that should be written down, particularly when our children feel close to their Heavenly Father and have a faith-promoting experience that strengthens their testimony. I encourage you to record these precious memories in the app and mark them private so just you and family members can access them. This app integrates well with the family search app linking memories to people by tagging their names. It is also great for recording stories of families members when they are sharing either at holiday gatherings or other visits. You never know when these moments will be spoken of again. Audio memories are really nice because when these older family members pass on, it will be nice to have a recording of their voice to share with someone who did not know them.

There is something I would love to see apart of family search and that is where you are able to find people that are related to you in the world that they did have it and than they took it off then it was no longer than to use. It was such a great addition to family search. I felt it made familysearch so enjoyable and fascinating to find people that are related that you never knew of and you wanted to dig into family research even more so and there is a tool called find a neighbor or friend ugh to how do nearby that is related to you but when you use the tool it works for a distance of a 100 feet so you cannot find anybody so it’s really a big disappointment it works like a radar and I thought how do you change the distance because 100 feet don’t get you out of your house. I hope this can all be corrected and enhance familysearch because would want to research even more so because they have other avenues to research on. Thank you so much for taking the time to read these suggestions because familysearch would always be the best in family research . Hughie
Interviewed my aunt in California.

I used this to interview my aunt in California. She sat with me with her photo album and told me lots of stories about our family. I got the photos and her voice story of each one into Family search. She died about six months after that. I met with her son’s family, and help them get a family service account. I brought up each of the voice recordings of the memories and let them listen to it. Her son was overwhelmingly grateful to be able to listen to his mother’s voice and the fun and laughter she had recording those memories. it helped brighten his day. This is a tremendous app. I have added many photos with recordings of my own family and grandparents. Their memories will last forever. I greatly endorse everyone to get this app and use it before it’s too late.
