app available for Android and iPhone. It allows you to build your family tree and search for information in a huge collection of historical records. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Get to know FamilySearch Tree<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">O <strong>FamilySearch Tree<\/strong> It is an application developed specifically for genealogy and family history research. In it, you can register your parents, grandparents, great-grandparents, and other known relatives, and from this information, try to trace your lineage back to previous generations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The big difference is that the app doesn&#039;t just function as a place to draw a family tree. It also allows you to search for ancestors in... <strong>billions of historical records<\/strong> Maintained by FamilySearch. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These records can help to find information such as <strong>Full names, dates and places of birth, marriage, death, and family relationships.<\/strong>, depending on the documents available to each person and region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Discover where your ancestors came from.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After starting your family tree, one of the most interesting parts is keeping track of the places related to the family&#039;s history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The app itself has the feature. <strong>\u201c&quot;Mapping my ancestors&quot;\u201d<\/strong>, which allows you to explore on a map locations associated with important events in the lives of your ancestors. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This can help those who wish to investigate whether a particular part of their family came from... <strong>Italy, Portugal, Spain, Germany, Japan, or other regions<\/strong>, for example.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It&#039;s important to remember that the app cannot automatically determine your origin based solely on your last name. The results depend on the information provided and, primarily, on the historical documents and records found.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to start your research on your mobile phone.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The first step is to create an account on FamilySearch and start adding the information you already know. Include your parents, grandparents, and other relatives, trying to provide full names, dates, and cities whenever possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As your family tree grows, FamilySearch may introduce new features. <strong>suggestions for historical records related to your ancestors<\/strong>. These suggestions can help connect new generations and reveal relatives you didn&#039;t even know existed. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The more accurate information you add, the greater the chances of finding relevant matches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Discover old documents and stories.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">During your search, you may also find documents, photographs, stories, and other information added to the platform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The app allows you to add <strong>photos, stories and documents related to the profiles of ancestors<\/strong>, creating a tree that goes beyond names and dates. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Imagine starting out knowing only your grandparents and, after some research, discovering the names of your great-grandparents, great-great-grandparents, and the places where different generations of your family lived.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Is it really free?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yes. The <strong>FamilySearch Tree is free.<\/strong>. The official iPhone app page states that the service remains free, and FamilySearch also offers its mobile apps for free. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On Android, the app has already surpassed... <strong>10 million downloads<\/strong> on Google Play. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Is it worth using?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For those curious about their own family history, FamilySearch can be an excellent starting point. You can begin with just a few pieces of information about your parents and grandparents and expand your research as you find documents and connections.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The most interesting thing is being able to do practically everything through your cell phone, while keeping your <strong>family tree, documents, photographs and family discoveries<\/strong> gathered in the same place.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Descobrir de onde vieram seus antepassados, conhecer sobrenomes antigos da fam\u00edlia e encontrar registros de parentes que viveram h\u00e1 muitas d\u00e9cadas ficou muito mais f\u00e1cil com a tecnologia.
