Welcome to RootsChat.com Help Pages

Introduction

Welcome to RootsChat.com!
RootsChat is an easy to use messaging forum for everyone researching their family history. We aim to keep this service free, and hope that the genealogy community as a whole will benefit from it.

One of the ideas behind RootsChat is to make a genealogy forum that is not only free, but good! We do hope what you see before you is just that, and to make sure your experience is even more enjoyable we have created these help files to assist you wherever and whenever you may need assistance.

If this is your first time on a messaging forum (or 'bulletin board'), then please click on the item that you want to learn more of on the left. You will notice that these help pages can be viewed at the same time as looking at RootsChat, so if you're unsure about anything then you can have both pages up side-by-side.
