You've probably heard about the upcoming FamilySearch RootsTech conference in Salt Lake City. Only a fraction of attendees will be there in person, so we thought it might be fun to connect us.
Count me in. Friday and Saturday I'm pretty free. Thursday I'll be participating around my other commitments. Most of the Thursday sessions I plan on viewing are about FamilySearch's shared tree. Others are Publishing in Genealogy Journals, Learn Genealogy with AI, Citing Family Sources, and How Can AI Assist Family Historians. Friday: Analyzing Evidence, Tell Your Story like a True Reporter, and Developing Research Plans. Saturday: Resources for Mid-Atlantic Genealogy, AI Transcription of Handwritten Docs, Finding your Family at the Library of Congress, and Extracting Evidence.
This sounds amazing Barbara and if we can get the timing to suit I would love to be involved in some way. I absolutely love thee excitement and buzz that you get from a live show and have missed that enormously post covid. Although I am not attending RootsTech in person, this could be the next best thing!
Yay! It is truly an international show, so online my two slots a day are intended to allow for both Europe and the Pacific Rim, though we have slight adjustments to allow onsite folks to make it to programs. That’s the plan!
Stay tuned for final details on times. Salt Lake City is on North American Mountain Time.
Ooh I’m excited Barbara! As if RootsTech doesn’t create enough excitement, now this to send it off the scale. I will be living my life on your time zone during RootsTech so as not to miss any of the fun
I will be at home in my PJ's for Rootstech, but turning my days upside down so that it will be easier to attend live and I won't miss any of the fun here. FOMO!
Count me in!

Count me in! I’ll be attending from my home office. I’ve cleared my schedule for the duration of the conference.
BTW—We’re 11th cousins. :)
How about that! There were good things happening in the 17th century in Hartford, Connecticut Colony, eh? Nice to meet you, cuz.
Awesome sauce… maybe this is a cousins ride-along. 🤭
Fabulous idea!
This is such a terrific idea and will be such fun!
I’m excited to meet Robin and Denyse and all the other members of this wonderful genealogy community IRL in SLC!
See you there!!

What? Jennifer? Where will you be? 🫨 how exciting. Not the whole time zone is in driving distance… but I’d love to have you to 🫖 ☕️🥰

Lol, turning the day 🙃 upside down to join in on the fun. Well, let's make sure to make it fully worth your while... to the 🐰🐰 bunny-brigade!
I can't wait!!! Sounds great! If I can help at all from my studio with my bunny slippers on, let me know.
Oh you will, you keyboard ranger. 🐴
