Unearth the Past: A family history & genealogy podcast

Have you ever found an old, faded photograph of an ancestor and wished you could breathe new life into it? Imagine turning monochromatic memories into vivid visuals or even catalyzing static pictures into dynamic avatars. In this engaging episode, we take a deep dive into the world of MyHeritage, an innovative platform that can transform your understanding of family history. We not only explore its captivating features like photo colorisation, image enhancement, and avatar creation but also create an enthralling AI-narrated Deep Story animation of my Nana Mary.
Moving forward, we shift gears to delve into the exciting feature of MyHeritage, which uses AI to estimate the date a photograph was taken - it's like travelling back in time! To add more to your genealogical exploration, we explore Ancestry and Find My Past, a resource that now boasts an impressive collection of 231,000 new baptism records from Derbyshire spanning the period from 1524 to 1991. If you've hit a dead end in your family tree research, this episode offers valuable insights and resources. We wrap up by inviting your recommendations for future guests and stirring up the conversation around family history and genealogy. Get ready to journey back in time, rediscover your roots and enrich your family's legacy.
