Create Your Family History Books Online

At the website of Ancestry.com, you can find genealogical records including census records, which contain a person’s name, age, parent’s birthplace, occupation, etc. You can also find immigration records, which can tell how your ancestors have travelled from another country to the place where you are; besides, you can also find the accurate records about someone’s birth, marriage, and death.

With the family history you have discovered, you can create your Family History Book on your own. It is quite easy to set up, as you just need to import data from your family tree saved at Ancestry.com. If you’d like, you can insert additional pages to add content or generations, and customize the book with text or images.

Ancestry.com is the largest for-profit genealogy company in the world, which develops and markets genealogical software, and offers a variety of genealogical related services. Besides the website itself, Ancestry.com also operates other sites including MyFamily.com, Genealogy.com, and Rootsweb.com in the US. Besides, it also operates sites in foreign countries such as Australia, Canada, China, and some countries in Europe.
