    Holla Dennis J Yancey esto es lo me inspira amí

    La finalidad de conocer y saber de mis antepasados y saber que puedo recopilar informacion suez que me va ha conducir a realizar mi árbol genealógico y en donde podré observar y mis ascendentes y descendentes y realizar por ellos la obra vicaria realizando las ordenanzas respectivas y así ganar un grado para llegar a la vida eterna.

    Dennis, You asked a great question.

    This is the reason we work on our Family Tree in FamilySearch:

    The overall purpose of Family Tree is to help you discover your family and, in turn, discover a bit about yourself.

    • Family Tree is a little different from other similar sites in that it is a single tree linked together in families, rather than a site that allows users to create and manage their own private trees. This difference means that everyone works together on the same data, allowing for the potential to connect every member of the human family.
    • Family Tree compares records and sources in order to help you resolve mistakes or duplication in records. It also provides messaging and collaboration tools, as well as free expert phone support, to help you resolve errors.
    • Family Tree draws from FamilySearch's enormous database to provide record hints. This makes it easier to link you and your ancestors to earlier generations.
    • The Memories section can help foster deeper connections to ancestors. It provides a place where you can preserve and share photos and histories.
    • We want Family Tree to be accessible to as many people as possible. You can view it through a variety of means, including on mobile devices, with the Family Tree and Memories apps, or in areas with low bandwidth, with the Family Tree Lite website.

    It is our hope that, through Family Tree, we can work together to create the best-sourced, public genealogical family tree in the world and allow family members to connect both in the past as well as the present.

    We love FamilySearch and Family Tree as it provides quests around the world to learn more about their individual families.
