Have You Heard?

FamilySearch has announced another big change affecting your research process.

On September 1, 2017, FamilySearch will discontinue its microfilm distribution services. The change is the result of significant progress made to FamilySearch’s microfilm digitization efforts.

Online access to digital images of records allows FamilySearch to reach many more people, faster and more efficiently. To date, more than 1.5 million microfilms have been digitized and are accessible on FamilySearch.org

Any microfilm/fiche orders made before the August 31, 2017 deadline will be filled and sent to your local family history center. If there are any records you had been planning to order, make sure to do it soon.
