RootsTech 2024 has come to a close, and there were plenty of memories to go around – which definitely fits the RootsTech “Remember” theme.

For the Management Team of the Family History Guide Association, it was a busy and rewarding time. Here’s a recap of classes and presentations that were given by our team:

• James Tanner, Chairman of the Board, gave a three-part series about artificial intelligence: “Using AI Tools to Expand Your Research Universe.” It included Part 1: Chat and Search Tools, Part 2: Genealogical Research Tools, and Part 3: Imaging Tools.
• Miles Meyer, Education Director, presented “Adding Social History to Your Family History” and “Using Census, Maps, and Newspapers to Enhance Your Research.”
• Bob Taylor, Director of Development, presented “Introduction to The Family History Guide.”
• Scott and Angelle Anderson, Public Relations and Marketing Directors, presented “Ancestral Homelands and The Family History Guide” on the Heritage Theater stage.

This year The Family History Guide Association was again a Bronze level sponsor of RootsTech, with a comfy 30×30 foot booth in the Expo Hall. Our volunteers gave hundreds of two-minute demos to visitors at the booth and gave out several thousand pass-along cards for the website. Many guest reactions were very positive, and we explored potential partnerships and collaborations with several companies and their representatives.
