Discover Records Easily
Finding Chinese ancestors is now easier than ever. With our new built-in RecordFinder™, we automatically locate new records in the My China Roots Database for you. Just update your family tree and we’ll send Record Matches your way.
🔔 To receive matching records, enable “Record Matches” in your Profile under Email Notifications.
🧩 Tip: The more details you add for each ancestor (e.g. bilingual names, places, and dates), the better Record Matches you’ll receive.
🚀 We’ve made significant optimizations to minimize irrelevant Record Matches and simplify the review process.
