French Historical Records:

359 million records added

We’ve just published 359 million historical records from France from a vital records collection — including birth, marriage, and death records — and a naturalization records collection. Since mid-October 2021 we’ve added 844 million French records in total from 15 historical record collections. All these records were previously available exclusively through Filae. The new collections complement the huge French treasure trove of vital, census, military, and burial records, making MyHeritage an essential resource for anyone researching their French roots.
