What if you could take a trip in a time machine and show your family their ancestor’s world. What genealogist hasn’t wanted to do that? Viewing and making a genealogy video can be like time travel. By creating a video you immerse yourself in images, sounds, and stories from the time of your ancestor to bring their world alive!

Margaret, we hope your travel home was smooth. Ours was a little uncertain as we started through Wyoming on Sunday morning but all worked out and we arrived home mid-afternoon yesterday. It was nice to meet you and to become familiar with your work.
Marcia and Ken from Kansas
Marcia,
It was so nice to meet you and Ken at RootsTech. I got home safe, despite a 1.5 hour flight delay in Denver – a bit painful because the flight was pushed from 12 Midnight to 1:30 am. I had a great time talking to vendors and attendees. Looking forward to sharing what I learned with the Video Genealogy community!
I’d love to hear more about Ken’s migration visualization project!
