For centuries, key moments in our stories have been captured on fragile paper. These records are often all that’s left of ancestors’ lives. Sadly, many of the world’s historical records are disappearing faster than we
can archive them on our own.
The World Archives Project lets anyone from the genealogy community help bring historical record collections to the public. Contributors become the first to see new collections as they type in information that creates searchable record indexes.
Please take a moment to log in above or register with Ancestry.com before downloading the World Archives Project software and getting started.
Watch our helpful training video to see how easy it is to be part of the World Archives Project.
