FamilySearch is the premier online genealogy website. All their collections are free to the public. Some are available online, others are available onsite.
Online collections are all free to search. Due to contractual obligations, you’ll need to be logged in with a free FamilySearch account to view some of these records. If you follow the link and find the record is locked, login to FamilySearch on your computer and this may unlock the collection.
How to View the Collections
-
Some links take you straight to the collection.
-
Other links take you to a catalog description page where you will have to select the link.
-
Look for a camera icon
and select that icon
-
or look for red print and select “here”
-
-
If there is a key icon
above the camera, this collection may be digitized and online, but you will either have to be signed in to your free account at FamilySearch or they may need to be viewed at your local family history center or affiliate library. Find the nearest viewing center near you.
-
In a few cases, the collection may be in queue to be digitized and you’ll need to check back at a later date.
