Family Search Enhancements

The Church of Jesus Christ of the Latter Day Saints' Web site, www.familysearch.org has added some very valuable updates to what is accessible through their Web page.

From the home page, click on the blue link to the left of the page "See new prototype for searching millions of new records." From here you will be directed to a world map. To the right of the map is a link, "View all collections." An ever expanding world of digitized and downloadable birth, marriage and death records from various states and some foreign countries is available to you from this site. Adobe is a secure site, so if it prompts you to download their reader, it should be safe to load in order to view the digital files.
