There's an exciting new way to compare census records from FamilySearch's partner, Ancestry. Have you used this new tool? What do you like about it?

Ancestry has a new census comparison tool that is really incredible. We put a link in the comments of an excellent Youtube video by Aimee Cross.

As a lab, we have always put a huge emphasis in our projects to ensure that someone is "census complete", which means that they are attached to each public US census that occured during their lifetime. This tool should provide a huge help for finding missing census records for individuals and making it easier to see the clues that link a person across each census.

As we enter , is a beautiful reminder that Jesus Christ came to fulfill the promises He had made to us. His triumphal entry into Jerusalem that we commemorate on Palm Sunday was one such fulfillment of prophecy.

It is such a poignant reminder that He will keep all of the other promises He has made to us. One of the most comforting being that we will be able to see our families again if we follow His word.

We hope you have a blessed Palm Sunday and Holy Week!

Some of my most interesting ancestors dealt with disabilities in times of considerably less support in the community. They definitely deserve to be honored and remembered for a special kind of grit in the face of ongoing adversity What about you? What are some family history stories of managing disability that exist in your family tree?

Marlee Matlin reminded us why inclusion matters so much in family history—and showed us that every single branch contributes to making our family trees beautiful. ❤️
