What Genealogy Communities
      Are Out There?
In today’s online age, family history
enthusiasts have found that they are not
alone. Genealogy groups and communities
have sprung up and have helped thousands of
genealogists come together for support and to
share advice and tips.
International Genealogy Communities
The search for family history in the U.S. often
leads to other countries from which ancestors
emigrated. Many Americans find that in order
to complete a family history chart, they must
focus                searches                 in
Italy, Ireland, England, Japan, and even
multiple countries throughout the world.
To     aid    with    international   genealogy
searches,     there    international  genealogy
communities that can provide much-needed
help in finding the data, documents, or records
you need. One good place to find an
international       community        is      at
http://www.worldvitalrecords.com/International
Pages.aspx.
Religious or Nationality Communities
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day
Saints is well known for continually
researching, collecting, and updating
genealogy records. They also are very
accessible not only for church
members, but to anyone looking for
family history records. Their website is at
www.familysearch.org.
People of the Jewish faith have also found
communities in which they can help each other
complete family genealogy research.
At www.jewishgenealogysearch.com or
www.jewishgen.com, you can search through
Jewish heritage records and databases, as well as
obtain help and direction in performing your
ancestry search.
Local Genealogy Communities
You can find other genealogy enthusiasts in your own
community. Individuals who often perform genealogy
searches have formed local groups where they can
meet, share ideas, offer classes, and help each other
complete their individual family trees. Many local
genealogy communities are dedicated to searching
local family histories, including county family and
property history records, towns, and even state
communities that help provide resources to
genealogists.
Genealogy Societies
Genealogy societies are also available for
those who want to become part of a larger
community. Through societies, you can
publish your own family history records, get
involved with organized conferences and
events, and even take courses as a society
member.
Societies such as the National Genealogy Society
were formed to help preserve genealogy
records, as well as provide education and training
to members. Membership subscriptions to a
genealogy      society     are     usually     very
reasonable, and they provide great benefits, such
as reduced price or free training, periodicals, and
access to valuable databases.
Commercial Genealogy Sites
You can also become part of a community by
joining popular genealogy websites. Websites like
Archives.com, Genealogy.com, MyFamily.com, An
cestry.com, and other popular sites can put you
in touch with other genealogy enthusiasts from
around the world. In addition, you can get expert
advice from professionals and have access to
tools to help you build and save your family tree.
Whether       you      are     a     genealogy
enthusiast, hobbyist, or professional, joining a
genealogy community can give you great
benefits. Consider those mentioned here, or
search the web for local groups or your
genealogy focus.
