In May 2015 the Community Trees databases were combined in the <i>[https://familysearch.org/family-trees Genealogies] section of the FamilySearch.org website. For more information on the change, see the [https://familysearch.org/blog/en/whats-familysearchorgmay-2015-part-2/ community announcement]. When searching the Genealogies, the search can be limited to a specific Community Tree by including the "Submission ID". Many of those submission IDs have been included with the title of the Community Tree below.

The Community Trees Project is an effort to gather and publish the genealogy for a whole town or community. Community Trees are lineage-linked genealogies from specific time periods and geographic localities around the world. The information also includes the supporting sources. Most of the genealogies are joint projects between FamilySearch and others who live locally or have expertise in the area or records used to create the genealogies. Each Community Tree is a searchable database with views of individuals, families, ancestors and descendants, as well as printing options.
