I’ve never had interest in Findmypast or MyHeritage as I felt FamilySearch and Ancestry had it all…and hadn’t heard of PERSI either. “I am incredibly thankful for your Big 4 session. Give her our best.” – Eldon and Dorothy Walker She was so prepared and presented it in such a manner as to be understood. did an excellent job and we were so thrilled with her presentation. “We want to tell you how much we enjoyed the presentation about the comparison of the four major websites. I suspect you will learn some things as well.” – Dick Eastman, Eastman’s Online Genealogy Newsletter This is a keeper! I have been using all four of these web sites for years and yet I learned several new facts about them, thanks to Sunny’s online video presentation. Sunny provides the most information about these four sites that I have ever seen in any other one document or video. Topics covered include cost, record types, geographic coverage, genetic testing, DNA matching, search flexibility, languages supported, mobile-friendly, automated matching, and a lot more. “You may have asked, ‘Which is the best online genealogy service for me to use?’….I suspect this video will answer most of your questions.

But other sites may count a birth record as three records, because a baby, mom and dad are all named. Does a birth record count as one record? FamilySearch thinks so. One site has a universal family tree–ideally with one record per person who has ever lived–and the others host individual trees for each user, leading to lots of duplication. Here’s one example: how many records are on each site? Some sites include DNA results and user-submitted family tree profiles in their total record count.
There are so many features on each site–and an apples-to-apples comparison isn’t easy. It’s critical to which sites offer what records and tools, so you know your options when your needs or interests change. Or you may find that you need DNA to push back further on your family tree.
For example, you may discover an Irish or Swedish ancestor whose records may be hosted on a different site than the one you’ve been using. But your family history research needs may change. You may determine that one or two of these sites meets your needs now.
