FamilySearch is revolutionizing the way we index family history records with new technology that utilizes artificial intelligence (AI) to transcribe historical records at a faster pace, making it easier for individuals to discover their ancestors. While the old indexing tool is being replaced, FamilySearch still relies on volunteer help to review, correct, and attach billions of names to the family tree.
Experienced indexers can also enjoy reviewing record hints and attaching names to the Family Tree. Contributions to FamilySearch are crucial, and volunteers can find their statistics under the “Opportunities” and “Your Impact” pages, showcasing how their efforts have helped others identify ancestors or discover significant details about their family story. Despite the changes in technology and indexing processes, the contributions and impact of volunteers remain essential to the success of FamilySearch.
To get involved and contribute to this impactful work, individuals can visit the FamilySearch homepage and explore the various activities and opportunities available under the “Get Involved” tab. These activities focus on improving the accessibility of information in historical records and enhancing the accuracy of the information in the Family Tree.
