The only updated collections on MyHeritage this week were MyHeritage Family Trees, Geni World Family Tree, and Family Search Family Tree. Since Ancestry and FamilySearch don’t provide details about updates to their family trees, I will only be including MyHeritage in my Friday Finds posts if there are new or updated historical record collections
Over the last couple of weeks, I was sharing new collections from The Genealogist, Newspapers.com and Fold3. Since I didn’t receive any notification from these sites, there don’t appear to be any new collections from these sites this week. These sites don’t appear to update their collections every week, so I will be including any new records from these sites in my Other New (and Not so new) records and tools section from now on, rather than having a separate section for each site.
