Reclaim the Records We're a non-profit activist group using Freedom of Information laws to regain public access to genea WE WANT OUR RECORDS BACK. And we get them!

More than thirty million records reclaimed so far

We’re Reclaim The Records, a new not-for-profit activist group of genealogists, historians, researchers, and open government advocates. We identify important genealogical records sets that ought to be in the public domain but which are being wrongly restricted by government archives, libraries, and agencies. We file Freedom of Information and Open

Data requests to get that public data released back to the public. And if the government doesn’t comply, we take them to court. Then we digitize everything we win and put it all online for free, without any paywalls or usage restrictions, so that it can never be locked up again.
