Searchable
historic records are made available on FamilySearch.org through the help of
thousands of volunteers from around the world. These volunteers transcribe
(index) information from digital copies of handwritten records to make them
easily searchable online. More volunteers are needed (particularly those who
can read foreign languages) to keep pace with the large number of digital
images being published online at FamilySearch.org. Learn more about
volunteering to help provide free access to the world's historic genealogical records
online at FamilySearch.org/indexing.
FamilySearch is the largest genealogy
organization in the world. FamilySearch is a nonprofit, volunteer-driven
organization sponsored by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
Millions of people use FamilySearch records, resources, and services to learn
more about their family history. To help in this great pursuit, FamilySearch
and its predecessors have been actively gathering, preserving, and sharing
genealogical records worldwide for over 100 years. Patrons may access
FamilySearch services and resources for free at FamilySearch.org or through more than 5,000
family history centers in 129 countries, including the main Family History
Library in Salt Lake City, Utah.
