Free immigration records access from MyHeritage

From MyHeritage (www.myheritage.com)

The Immigration & Travel records on MyHeritage encompasses 57 collections with 181 million historical records from all over the world. They include passenger arrival records, naturalization records, border crossings, emigration records, passports, and convict transportation records.

These records are often pivotal for genealogists, because discovering details on exactly where your ancestors were from can help you understand where to look for additional records on their childhoods and their families in the old country. Normally, most of these records are free to search, but can only be fully accessed by MyHeritage users with a Data or Complete plan. From today until June 28, anyone will be able to access them free of charge. Read more about MyHeritage’s immigration and travel records in the blog post at https://blog.myheritage.com/2021/06/journey-to-the-past-with-free-immigration-travel-records/.



MyHeritage has also released Roman Catholic records for Austria - details at https://blog.myheritage.com/2021/06/myheritage-releases-two-record-collections-from-austria-and-eastern-europe/
