I suggest that the lists of | I suggest that the lists of Latter-day Saints Wards that appear on some of the Utah County pages be moved to specific pages for Latter-day Saint Wards for each county and that if we are going to have a list of Wards that either they be further identified or the types of records they might have be identified. The lists do not seem helpful otherwise. For example, what was the date the Ward was organized, where can the historical records be found etc. | ||
I further suggest that the references to the American Indian tribes be made to refer to the actual current name of the tribe. For example, the name "Paiute" is not helpful or correct, the tribal name is "The Paiute Indian Tribe of Utah" from their website. We should be accurate and not use outdated designations.
