When Tracing the Tribe arrived at Beit Hatfutsot at 8.30am, nothing much was happening. In less than an hour, nearly all of the 50 MyHeritage.com computers were in use by people of all ages, including many children.Tracing the Tribe is sharing a table with Rose Feldman and Garri Regev of the Israel Genealogical Society (photo below right) and we also are displaying the 2010 IAJGS International Jewish Genealogy Month poster.
Many people are stopping by and asking about genealogy, how to get started, what to do, even questions on DNA genetic genealogy.
It appears to be a great day for MyHeritage. In just the first five hours, neary 400 trees were added.

It's a good day to be in the air-conditioned lobby of the museum, as it's humid and hot outdoors today.People who've said hello: Harvey Krueger stopped by to say hello before the Beit Hatfutsot international board of directors meeting, and Assia Reuven and Haim Ghiuzeli of the museum.
Judging from the people in the lobby, it seems more and more people are coming in - which is a good thing.
We're all looking forward to tomorrow's second day!
