FamilySearch Labs – Latter Day Saints.

FamilySearch Labs – Latter Day Saints.

http://labs.familysearch.org/

This isn’t new and a couple of months ago Thrall posted info about the 1895 Argentine census being available in Record Search. There’s been stuff added since and the 1900 U.S. census appears to be almost complete including images. In view of the way the site is developing with the inclusion of English and other U.S. etc. data I thought it might be worth posting again in the main part of the forum.

FamilySearch Labs is in beta (development) mode and there may be some bugs in the system. The general public has been invited to have a play around with it. To register you will need to have Adobe Flash Player installed and Popups unblocked for the site and you possibly may need a reasonably fast computer and internet connection.

And if you have some time to spare, you can contribute to this effort by indexing records for them. Go to

and click on the Volunteer tab and you can get signed up, and start downloading packages of work.
