125 Years of FamilySearch



You may find it hard to believe but FamilySearch is really 125 years old this year 2019. The explanation for this is quite simple: FamilySearch is the trade name (and now the actual name) of the Genealogical Society of Utah that was founded back in 1894. Hence, 125 years. You can read a short summary of the history of FamilySearch on this blog post.
