Been looking for your great-grandparents? Relax. They’re buried in a granite vault in Utah.
For the past several decades, the world’s largest repository of family records has been cataloguing and filming every available record of human existence: more than three billion pages of census records, births, christenings, marriages, deaths…if anyone recorded it, the genealogists at the Vault have probably copied it.
And here’s the best part: You can take a look! FamilySearch.org makes genealogical records available to anyone who’s curious, or who wants to research their own genealogy. Just click the How Do I Get Started link and follow the six steps to creating your family tree.
