It is clear that data critical to genealogy (and other disciplines) is being systematically stripped from federal websites. Census Bureau data IS being removed, and census data geeks at IPUMS verify and are taking whatever steps they can to preserve the data for the future. Scary times we live in.

I’m so honored by a mention from @cyndislist.bsky.social!

The Family History AI Show podcast is always wonderful, but the tip section this week on how to use AI for free -- and what to use it for -- is gold. Don't miss it! #Genealogy #FamilyHistory #AI #podcast
