Where: National Hall, Olympia, London

As in previous years, Findmypast.com was proud to sponsor the Society of Genealogists' Family History Show, this year held at Olympia as part of a new show - Who Do You Think You Are? Live.

Approximately 12,000 people passed through the doors to find out more about their heritage, from people who were dipping their toe into the family history waters for the first time, to veterans with decades of experience of tracing their ancestry.

Thank you to everyone who visited our stand. It was a pleasure meeting you all and we were delighted that we managed to trace some of your elusive ancestors and break through a few brick walls at our stand and in our Ask the Experts area over the 3-day event.

You can view some of the pictures taken at the show below.
