The Best of Rootstech

  • March 23 2024 10:30AM

    Rootstech 2024 is from February 29 to March 2 this year - in Salt Lake City or online.  You can register now for access to all the sessions here.  Ot better yet, let US do the work and present you with (in our opinion) the best takeaways from the best sessions.

    What Is RootsTech?

    RootsTech is the largest genealogy event in the world, sponsored and hosted by FamilySearch. RootsTech brings people from all over the globe together for one common mission: gathering and celebrating family.

    Classes at RootsTech are offered for all skill levels, beginner to expert, so you can learn more about discovering your ancestors and linking them to your family tree.


The event is free and all are welcome; however, it will be necessary to register in advance

  After registering, you will receive a confirmation email with information about joining the meeting.

  • We support research through our genealogy library located at the San Mateo Public Library, online databases, and research services
  • We connect with each other through six-times-a year newsletters (available in the Members section), a blog, a Facebook page, and occasional eNews notices about SMCGS events.
