AI and Genealogy Podcast picture

Check out my latest podcast about why AI cannot replace human genealogists: from reading sloppy 19th‑century cursive to spotting phonetic name tricks, legal nuances, and the emotional connections that make family history matter. #RootsTech2025 #GenealogyPodcast

I came across this guide (from my kids’ elementary school) while going through some old papers. Some people never outgrow bullying, as my encounter at #rootstech2025 reminded me.

My Mom's two DNA matches from MyHeritage, both in different "clusters."

After #RootsTech2025, I decided to step back to #DNA basics and start over with the #LeedsMethod and my Mom's @myheritageofficial.bsky.social matches. Oh, right, she only has 2 matches between 400 and 90 cM, who don't match each other. 😐 #Sigh #IrishDNA #ClusterNotCluster

Took advantage of the discount this weekend! Decided to step back to the basics and got lost in #Leeds method spreadsheets instead - but hope to start painting soon! #RootsTech2025 #DNA

RootsTech Day 2 and 3 I am very delayed with my recap of RootsTech 2 and 3. That's just how much fun I was having! Day 2 My day started bright and early with my "...

I’ve been listening to the #rootstech2025 online sessions. When the speaker is truly dynamic, you don’t need to see any slides. #notatrootstech

#RootsTechSelfies with #Genealogy friends recently at #RootsTech2025

I'm still making my way through my #rootstech2025 sessions. One of my big takeaways has been Becoming Betsey: Find Female Ancestors with Cluster Research by Rebecca Whitman Koford. Cluster research involves looking at all the various ppl, not just in the family tree, around an ancestor. /3

#RootsTech2025 is now over, but it was such an amazing time! It was so great seeing old friends and meeting new ones. I'm still hanging out around SLC today and heading home tomorrow.

Fresh from #RootsTech 2025! 🚀 Check out some of the latest and most notable genealogy updates and innovations unveiled at this year’s event.

And that's it! #RootsTech2025 over for another year. I learned a whole bunch, to put it technically. Still got all those handouts to read through though...

Starting to watch my #RootsTech2025 playlist. Realising there are 2 people in the genealogy community who re-energise me: Christa Cowan and Diahan Southard. Who in the genealogy community re-energises you? #Genealogy #FamilyHistory

#RootsTech2025 may be over, but the memories will last forever.

Thanks to everyone we got to chat to — it was lovely to hear all about your projects and to introduce Transkribus to those who had never used it before.

And thanks to Family Search for organising such a great conference!

I avoided #RootsTech2025 live due to my ongoing computer fatigue caused by extreme stress at my full-time employment but I've enjoyed adding the new online classes to my playlist today. #Genealogy

In other news, I paused watching some of the new (to me) #RootsTech2025 presentations because I needed to review the ones I’d already watched.

There have been some wonderful introductions to complicated topics during #RootsTech2025, not least Dr Nicholas Dixon's talk on Deeds and Civil Court Records. My next two aren't released until this evening so I'm clocking out in favour of hot stew and cozy PJs. 😉 #NotAtRootsTech

Talking with the women at the AAHGS booth at #RootsTech2025 while renewing my membership has me motivated to rework my Level 1 AG project to submit to their peer-reviewed journal!

My Day 3 #NotAtRootstech began with a wonderful talk by Lisa Stokes on Citing Family Sources. I was taught the @unistrathclyde.bsky.social way during my course and am now looking to enhance that method, and Lisa's talk gave me some great ideas. #RootsTech2025

RootsTech Day 3 Recap: Crossing the Finish Line - Our Growing Family Tree The Final Stretch Today was the final day of RootsTech 2025, and I’m officially genealogied-out (if that’s not a word, it should be!). I dragged myself out of bed at 8 AM to start my day a recorded se...

Finishing out #RootsTech2025 with a little Soccer Mommy at the Depot.

#MiniMe #MiniMDFWL #MiniFWL enjoyed her time #RootsTech2025 enormously. She met lots of lovely people and got lots of ribbons. If you haven't been at the live event, check out RootsTech.org as there is a raft of content which you can watch from the comfort of your sofa! #genealogy

It's #Caturday and #RootsTech2025 live event has just finished today. Here are my two new kittens just a week before I left them in the capable hands of their #AuntieJenny #Paddington&Marmalade (R-L)

Dinner with my fellow students and tutors from the University of Strathclyde, Genealogy, Heraldry, and Paleography. Had a blast! #RootsTech2025 #Genealogy #GeneticGenealogy #RedIguana2
