:{{Green check}} FamilySearch has had Family History Centers for several years. They are adding Discovery Centers soon, as well as libraries and archives partnering with FamilySearch. These will all be under the umbrella term of FamilySearch Centers, but the names of existing centers will not be changed, at least not yet.

'''Identify Family History Centers''' in (or near) each county. 1) Link and click to the Wiki page for each center and add contact information, if needed. 2) On the county page, indicate if they have Ancestry.com and other online subscriptions. 2a) If none have those subscriptions, identify the nearest Center (or library) with those subscriptions. 3) Link users to the Center's hours. See [[FamilySearch Wiki:WikiProject Washington Tasks-Family History Centers|task description]]
The purpose of this task is to help users by 1) listing FamilySearch Centers in or near each county in Washington, 2) linking to the wiki page for that center; 3) updating the center's wiki page with contact information (address, phone #); 4) noting on the COUNTY page what online subscriptions they have (Ancestry.com, HeritageQuestOnline, Fold3, etc.). 5) Link to the FamilySearch site that gives hours for that center. (We don't want to put that in Wiki. Too hard to maintain. They need to maintain their own page.)<br>


The purpose of this task is to help users by 1) listing FamilySearch Centers in or near the county, 2) linking to the wiki page for that center; 3) updating the center's wiki page with contact information (address, phone #); and 4) (is this possible?) linking to the FamilySearch area that gives hours for that center.<br>  
This task is an intermediate task and requires some knowledge about or experience with writing in wikitext. <br>
