I’m Megan Hillyer, professional genealogist and host of Know Your Ancestors. This podcast is about more than building a family tree, it’s about discovering the strength, belonging, and healing that come from knowing your lineage. Each episode is an invitation to explore the power of your ancestors’ lives and how their stories can shape and guide your own. At its heart, this podcast is about one truth: when you know your ancestors, you know yourself.

Remember: Day Two - Know How to Do It

Ep 49 : Welcome back to Day 2 of Remember, a 3-day journey to reconnect with your ancestors in a deeper, more meaningful way.


If you haven’t already, you can get the free workbook and full 3-day experience here


In Day 2: Know How to Do It, we’re learning how to follow the threads — how to begin uncovering your ancestors’ stories through simple, meaningful steps.


In this session, I’ll walk you through how to start (or revisit) your family tree using FamilySearch or Ancestry, and share what I’ve learned from years of research — how to gather what you already know, add new information with confidence, and avoid common pitfalls that can lead to inaccurate connections.


You’ll see how this process doesn’t have to be overwhelming — it’s about curiosity, discovery, and connection.


You’ll learn:

  • How to begin or update your family tree with FamilySearch or Ancestry

  • Tips for verifying information and avoiding common mistakes

  • How to find clues that bring your ancestors’ stories to life

    • A guided meditation to connect with one ancestor’s presence and strength
    • Reflection prompts to deepen your sense of belonging

  • ✨ Day 3 will be available tomorrow.
