Help! I’m Stuck!

Genealogists are time travelers. Genealogybank.com

Sometimes, when using a genealogy website, you know what you are looking for but dont quite know how to find it. Thats where the help section comes in.

If you use Ancestry, you can visit www.support.ancestry.com and you can view articles about frequently asked questions. Some of these helpful articles include information on locating AncestryDNA results, activating an AncestryDNA kit, how to share a family tree, information about managing sources in trees, and many others.

Or, if you are a FamilySearch user you can visit this link:

The FamilySearch help center has a search bar if there is a specific question that you have. There are also categories that you may comb through including, memories, indexing, genealogy assistance, DNA testing, etc.

For help with MyHeritage, you can view this link:

MyHeritage also has a search bar for its help center. If youd rather find a topic by category, categories include, Subscriptions & Payments, Account & Settings, DNA, Discoveries & Research, etc.

No matter what site you use to do your research or save your family tree, it is good to remember that the help center of the website is available to you if you become stuck or are not sure how to use a certain feature. It is easy to forget that this feature exists, or that it can be helpful. I recommend checking it out, so that you can use the website in a fuller capacity.
