FamilySearch to search many records... FamilySearch allows me to search a number of historical records and every week they add many new records. One other good tool is their hints email which automatically send me names of people who I may be related to and are not connected to my tree.

Save yourself hours of frustration Save yourself hours of frustration ! I know this is a nonprofit free site but your time and your sanity are certainly worth considering before you fumble around this site. Hours of work and poof gone with no clue as what caused it.

Terrible app Terrible app. Cannot search images. Have to put up with graveyard ghouls who r no relation that want 2 change your family tree.

FS is a total mess and not worth the effort The tree is a total mess and any advanced genealogist would know that. Why bothering spending time uploading or entering information when any Tom, Dick or Harry can change it at bey. No thanks. I'll keep my tree on my computer and in my family and not somewhere on the internet where buffoons like certain members of FS can mess it up. As for support several members on that site were reported for abuse towards others but what do FS do? Allow them to keep their membership. Best advice I can offer to others just starting with FS is to not add your information as it will probably be changed in a matter of days by the FS bullies. The records are good on the site but the tree itself is totally corrumpted.

I am a member of The Church of Jesus… I am a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Even if I wasn't, I would still be interested in using FamilySearch. It truly is the best (I mainly use FamilySearch and supplement with other services such as Ancestry, etc.). The layout is quite simple, the graphics are nice, there is a lot to do to further the work of the Lord in connecting families, among other religious practices within the Church.
