If you are using the compact disc edition, however, the computer will search the entire region for any name.'' | '''''International Genealogical Index (IGI).

Unpublished family histories are sometimes found in the possession of private individuals in Argentina. These private individuals may have collected a variety of unpublished records pertaining to their own families. But such materials are generally inaccessible for research unless you can establish contact with the appropriate individuals. | Unpublished family histories are sometimes found in the possession of private individuals in Argentina.
