LDS Records Search Pilot Continues to Grow

The Records Search Pilot on the Familysearch.org website is one of those websites that many of us know about, but which we neglect to check on frequently. And frequent checking is necessary because the content of the site is so dynamic.

The way to get to this site is to first go to http://www.familysearch.org/, hover your cursor over "Search Records" in the menu bar, and then select "Record Search Pilot" that appears in the drop-down menu. You can search this growing collection by ancestor name, or you can elect to browse the entire collection.

The pilot program is so dynamic that it even has its own Blog (http://labs.familysearch.org/blog/) to keep you apprised of changes in its content.

Another way to get introduced to this part of the Familysearch website is to attend our PGS class on using all aspects of Familysearch.org. One of those classes is coming up on 10 September at 10 am at the Largo Public Library. The class is open to the public, but space is limited, so registration is necessary to ensure adequate seating. To register contact Bob Bryan at BBryan84@tampabay.rr.com or 727-595-4521.
