FamilySearch.org has long been one of my favorite genealogy websites.

They have plenty of records and more are indexed everyday by a large number of volunteers. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (also known as the Mormons) are well-known in the genealogy community for having a large numbers of genealogy records and sharing them with the wider community.

They have long been shared via their Family History Centers but with the advent of the internet have shared their resources online. I assume most know this, but I should add that use of these resources is for the general public and no church membership is required. In fact, I don’t recall ever been being asked about church membership.

There is certainly a lot of new stuff including family trees, helpful videos, documentation, and assistance. You are asked to set up a free account to do somethings. I’ve had my free account for years and plan on exploring the newer aspects of this website.

Oh, and if you want to volunteer to help this free site help more people, I’m sure they would welcome the help.

So check out https://www.familysearch.org/. It should be fairly simple to find stuff from the home page but in case you have problems, here is a link directly to their Help Center.
