We are accepting new writers! Please read our submission guidelines carefully.

Genealogy: Find Your Past is a community for people who use genealogy to connect with their ancestral past or are beginning to find their family history. We are an inclusive community of writers excited to share our stories.

This publication was born from a desire to connect with family roots. It’s a fascinating study of family history. From following the first clue, genealogy is a never-ending search for where we came from.

Our stories will appear in chronological order based on when they were published. Writers can submit previously published stories but will not appear at the top because of Medium’s algorithm. That’s out of our hands.

Guidelines are simple:

• Follow our publication. That was easy.
• We do not accept AI-created stories. We do permit the use of AI-created images.
• Stories should be 1,000 words or less. There are no punishments for exceeding the limit, but we try to keep stories short to allow visitors to our publication to discover and read more of our writers.
