Have you ever wished you had full access to a certain paid-subscription-only historical record collection for just one day?
This June, you just might have your chance!
Each day, we will open one of our paid-subscription-only historical record collections to the public, providing full, free access to the collection. On some days, we’ll be opening two or three related collections for free. The collections we’ve chosen for this offer are not the collections you can find anywhere — they are rare and valuable, and many are exclusive to MyHeritage. We’ll be posting regular updates on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram about the collections, so be sure to follow us and stay tuned so you don’t miss anything!
In all, a total of 2,043,456,361 records will be made accessible for free during the month of June. This special offer is in the spirit of MyHeritage’s commitment to providing people with more opportunities and resources to further their genealogical research while at home.
The day-long window for each collection will cover all time zones, so as long as you visit the collection on the correct day, you should be able to search and view the records to your heart’s content.
