Project Description

The FamilySearch website, familysearch.org, went online in 1999 with the first version of their searchable database of family history and historical records. It almost immediately crashed due to overwhelming popularity. Since the launch of the FamilySearch website, it has been continually updated and improved and it currently receives over 10 million visits per day and has more than 1 million registered users.
