The New Family Search Website Preview!
I pretty sure all of you already know about the new website that will be relaunched on September 2008 by our church. I am told that they first will release the digitlized records for the Us. census 1790-1910 and then SEVERAL groups wll be assigned to get feed the master copier to make the records in HD to get the best picture and will actually clean the records for digitilizing. This will be great for those burned, stained, ripped and messed up records, The machine will do something to restore to its original thing. I was kind confused when I heard this. Then it will be easier to transcribe them so that there will be less chance of bad recording and then linking them to their digitilized record. A friend of our family went to Salt Lake for the sole purpose of this two hour intro and crash course for the new project. She was told that volunteers are going to be needed to do indexing! but there is already several thousands of members from the LDS church in Salt Lake that are prepared for this. The more the faster it will be. The earlist Mexican records will be released along with their digital record by January 2009! But if things go smooth it can be released faster. If you want to get a preview to the new website I have the link. And if you register right now youll be able to view the 1930 Mexican Cenus online!
