2022 is off to a great start! Over the last two months, we’ve added 277 million new records from 34 new collections. From France, we’ve added Filae family tree profiles, civil birth and death collections from Val-de-Marne, an index of obituaries, and a Legion of Honour collection. From Norway, we have added a death registrations collection. Just this week, we published 5.8 million Jewish historical records from 28 historical record collections through a collaboration with JewishGen. With this update, the total number of records on MyHeritage has climbed to 16.8 billion. Many of the collections include high-quality scans of the original images alongside MyHeritage’s rich index.
Below, we share more details about the collections from France and Norway. To read more about our recently published collections of Jewish historical records, please see our separate post: MyHeritage Adds 28 Collections of Jewish Historical Records.
