About Us
Since 2011 RootsTech by FamilySearch has been a family gathering unlike any other. The annual conference, first held in Salt Lake City, Utah, has grown and changed since those early days. Whether in-person or online, RootsTech has always been a celebration of connection—past, present and future.
