Thirteen collections were added or updated on the FamilySearch Record Search pilot—over 3.5 million new records. International researchers will be excited to know that collections were added for Brazil, Czech Republic, and Italy.
In the United States, collections were added for Florida, Indiana, Massachusetts, New York, North Carolina, and South Carolina.
These collections can be searched for free at the FamilySearch.org Records Search pilot (click Search Records, and then click Record Search pilot).
Special thanks to the FamilySearch volunteers who helped create the 2 million indexed names published this week!
