Family History Stories, Anecdotes, etc.

Do you have an interesting story about your ancestors. Something that gives insight into their life and times? If so, please take a few moments to share so that others that happen this way might learn. Tell us what made your parent, grandparent or great-grandparent special to you. Where did they work, what were their hobbies, etc. What family stories do you remember that were passed down from generation to generation? Be sure to use the 'add a discussion' link rather than replying to a story that someone else has posted.

Genealogy News and Tips

Good News for Roots Television Viewers

Hundreds of free genealogy and family history videos almost disappeared, perhaps forever, last week when Megan Smolenyak announced that Roots Television would be closing its virtual doors. Luckily, enthusiastic support for the site through emails, tweets, Facebook and messages, has convinced Megan that there is a demand for educational genealogical videos and that Roots Television meets a different need, and even audience, than network reality genealogy shows like Who Do You Think You Are? and Faces of America.

Thank you Megan for continuing to provide us all with such a rich genealogical resource. We're glad Roots Television decided to stick around!

Official Minnesota Marriage Index Online

A new free online index of Minnesota marriages from all 87 counties went online last month.The Minnesota Official Marriage System (MOMS) shows the bride and groom's name, the year of marriage, and the county that maintains the record. Marriage certificates can be ordered for a fee. A list of counties with their index dates is available here.

The Minnesota statewide marriage index is a great addition to other wonderful online Minnesota vital records collections and indexes, including the Minnesota Birth Certificates Index and Minnesota Death Certificates Index from the Minnesota Historical Society
