This book will help you get the most out of your Ancestry.com subscription by showing you how to take advantage of what the world's biggest genealogy website has to offer--and how to find answers to your family tree questions within its billions of records and massive network of family trees. This newly updated guide reflects the site's many changes, with screenshots that demonstrate how to create family trees, navigate the site, and use Ancestry.com's search engines. A new section on Ancestry DNA will also help you dive deeper into your research, with detailed guides to interpreting test results and applying them to research. What you'll learn: step-by-step strategies for structuring your searches to find what you're looking for faster; details on each of Ancestry.com's historical record categories, including what you can expect to find in them; tips for creating and managing your family tree on Ancestry.com, as well as connecting your tree to others on the site; timesaving tricks to maximize your Ancestry.com experience, including Hints (the "shaky leaf"), Ancestry DNA, and the Ancestry.com mobile app. Whether you've just begun dabbling in family history or you're a longtime Ancestry.com subscriber, this book will turn you into an Ancestry.com power user!
