RootsTech 2022 begins tomorrow, March 3 [View all]

Anyone here participating? I don't really care that the Mormons sponsor it, just as I don't care that they own the Family History Library in SLC. They let anybody in for free. I participated in the virtual RootsTech last year, and besides learning a lot, found a gang of relatives and some good info. I found out. for instance, that one brother of my great-great-grandfather became a Mormon, settled in Idaho, had 10 kids, and supplied me with a whole arm of the family I had hitherto known nothing about. Also found second cousins I didn't know.
