MyHeritage Acquires the Legacy Family Tree Software and Webinar Platform

We're delighted to announce today that we've acquired Millennia Corporation, makers of the popular Legacy Family Tree genealogy desktop software and well-attended genealogy webinar platform, Legacy Family Tree Webinars. We consider Legacy's products to be highly complementary to our wide range of features and services.

Legacy's webinars, which have been around since 2010, have become the most popular source of education in the genealogy industry. Viewers enjoy talks accompanied by presentations and tutorials on a wide variety of genealogy content from the comfort of their own homes while learning from speakers who are leaders in their field, such as Judy G. Russell, Blaine Bettinger, Lisa Louise Cooke and Thomas MacEntee. Topics include genealogical research methodology, DNA, historical records and more. The webinars will continue to feature diverse and high-quality educational content. The webinar platform will also enjoy infrastructure upgrades to support larger audiences.

Legacy Family Tree's desktop software has been in existence for twenty years and is consistently ranked (along with MyHeritage's Family Tree Builder, available at https://www.myheritage.com/family-tree-builder) among the top genealogy software products in the industry. Legacy Family Tree software will continue operating as before, enjoying improvements backed by MyHeritage's innovative technological resources. We plan to release a new version of Legacy Family Tree software, Legacy Family Tree 10, together. Version 10 will include the optional capability to sync family trees to the MyHeritage website and allow users to make updates to their family trees on the Legacy software using the MyHeritage mobile app.

We are also continuing to develop our Family Tree Builder software separately, and it will not be merged with Legacy's software. At MyHeritage, we value giving our users the ability to choose their preferred genealogy tools and allow them to work offline with robust functionality. While some other companies no longer develop genealogy software, we believe that people should be able to discover and preserve their family history on whatever platform they are comfortable with.

We welcome Legacy's users to MyHeritage to enhance their genealogical research with our advanced products and services. Legacy Family Tree users will now be able to take advantage of MyHeritage's world-class website features for online family trees, research their family history through historical records and utilize MyHeritage DNA tests for genealogy and ethnicity. We encourage our users to check out the webinar series on FamilyTreeWebinars.com and take advantage of this opportunity to discover an exciting and fun world of genealogical wisdom delivered by the top experts.

We extend a warm welcome to Legacy team and we look forward to the road ahead, as we work together to make family history easier and more accessible for everyone.
