FamilySearch
Indexing
The key life events of billions of
people are being preserved and shared through the efforts of people
like you. Using our online indexing system, volunteers from around
the world are able to quickly and easily transcribe the records—all
from the convenience of their homes. The indexes are then posted
for FREE at familysearch.org.
Unclaimed Persons
It's a
quiet but disturbing epidemic. People are going to their graves
with no family to claim them. Medical examiners and coroners'
offices—frequently overstretched with burgeoning case loads—are
turning to an unexpected resource for help. Over 400 genealogists
are now offering their volunteer services to help locate the next
of kin for unclaimed persons. And it's working. To
date, 221 cases have been
solved through this unusual partnership.
