MyHeritage Library Edition is a genealogy database that users can access from the library and from home. In addition to accessing the U.S. Federal Census, users can also search billions of historical documents from over 48 countries. These documents include birth, death and marriage records; the complete UK censuses; immigration, military and tombstone records; family tree profiles; historical photos and public records.
MyHeritage offers a variety of ways to search these resources. You can jump right in and search across everything or you can start off by limiting your search to a subset of the resources. The collections in MyHeritage are grouped into 14 categories. Census and voter lists, birth, marriage and death from England, Germany and Mexico, military, immigration and travel, government, land, court and wills are a few of the data available.
