One of the most exciting new resources for  genealogists, novice or professional, to hit the internet for a long time is Footnote.

Providing access to some documentation that has never before been found online, we checked out footnote to find out what it was all about and what it could offer to the genealogist.

What if  every history was a dynamic, always changing picture, where everyone could add parts, was part of its playing out for the rest of the world to view.
What if you could add your own stories to the overall big picture?

History was an ever-expanding perspective where anyone was free to interpret, extend and connect their own ideas and stories to the Big Picture?

At Footnote thats no longer a dream, but a reality. Footnote.com sets in original documents from history, offers you a glimpse of the past as you’ve never seen it before. Documents from the slave trade, from the suppression of the slave trade, from the Civil and Revolutionary wars, from WWI and WWII, letters from United States Presidents as well as old newspapers, documents from immigrants and naturalization papers.

More than being just a database of older documents however, footnote has millions upon millions of records which you may access, and  draws in an entire community of people who are passionate about their own history, about the history of the world, and about your history.

It offers us the chance as researchers and historians to interact and exchange our content, to share our stories with other family members and those we may not know exist.

Check out the new family histories being added every day on Footnote.com. View some of the historical documents and see if you’re not one of those who may fit into an area where they are looking to expand their family history, or if you may not find a family member who served in world war I or two, that you knew nothing about.
