FamilySearch Adds Free Records from 21 Countries
The following announcement was written by FamilySearch:
Italy, Sweden, and U.S. Collections Enjoy the Largest Additions
FamilySearch added another 30 million new, free records online (16 million
indexed names and 14 million browsable images). Totally new collections from
Canada, England, Germany, Italy, Micronesia, Slovenia, and the United States
can now be searched for free. Millions of new U.S. birth, marriage and death
records, and over 9 million church records from Sweden were also added. Find
your ancestors now at FamilySearch.org .
Searchable records on FamilySearch.org are made possible by thousands of
volunteers from around the world who transcribe (index) the information from
handwritten records to make them easily searchable by computer. More volunteers
are needed (particularly those who can read foreign languages) to keep pace
with the amount of digital images being published online at FamilySearch.org.
Learn more about how to help provide free access to the world’s historic
genealogical records as an indexer at FamilySearch.org .
FamilySearch International 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 has been actively
gathering, preserving, and sharing genealogical records worldwide for over 100
years. Patrons may access FamilySearch services and resources free online at
FamilySearch.org or through over 4,600 family history centers in 132 countries,
including the main Family History Library in Salt Lake City, Utah.
