IDAHO FALLS – After a yearlong renovation project, the Idaho Falls Family History Center is re-opening to the public and the community is invited to take a tour.
There are a variety of free services available to anyone who may be curious about where their ancestors came from and how they came to America.
“Our FamilySearch Center is open to our community to help you find and connect with your family. Visit us to experience the joy of getting to know your ancestors. We can help you find them and their stories. It will touch your heart,” the center’s co-directors, Janice and Thaddeus Zabriskie, say in a news release.
There’s a small studio to interview relatives and listen to their memories and stories, which are recorded on camera for family members to share however they wish.
A green screen allows people to take a photo of themselves with a backdrop of the country where their family line originated or other places of historical importance.
Patrons can also discover what celebrities they’re related to and bring their old family photos and home movies on reel-to-reel film or VHS tape and convert them to a digital format.
Watch the video above to see how these features work.
