MyHeritage gives free access to 1.3 billion French records for Bastille Day

 

Quoting from a recent email from MyHeritage,

We’re giving free access to all 1.3 billion French historical records on MyHeritage, from July 12–16, 2023!

MyHeritage is one of the most comprehensive repositories for French records in the world, with 120 collections covering a vast array of vital records, newspapers and periodicals, and other essential records, as well as all the family trees from Filae. In the past year alone, we’ve added 51,252,583 records from France, including a massive collection of French censuses.

Here is a screenshot of the French record page from MyHeritage.com to give you an idea of what is available. 

Because of my DNA test, I do have some French relatives, but I have yet to see how I am related to any of them, but I do benefit from the French records on MyHeritage when I help others do their own genealogical research.
