This past week, Scott got together with Bob Taylor to talk about The Family History Guide. (This came just days after the announcement from FamilySearch about the completion of digitizing a vast array of microfilm records.) The session was broadcast Saturday on the radio partner stations of Extreme Genes, such as iHeartRadio, Spotify, and TuneInRadio.

It is also being published as a podcast; click here to listen to it. The podcast also includes segments with David Lambert and David Rencher of FamilySearch, discussing the recent developments with digitizing millions of microfilm records.

Topics

Here are some of the topics included in the session:

• How did The Family History Guide get started?
• How does The Family History Guide help people learn FamilySearch?
• How does it help with partners such as Ancestry, MyHeritage, and Findmypast?
• What resources are found in the Countries menu of the website, and how do they help with research?

We hope you enjoy the Extreme Genes podcast session!
