This FamilySearch Wiki project
The purpose of the FamilySearch Wiki is to help users by giving them knowledge about records and methods for genealogy and family history for Utah. We need to include enough to really help.


*Link to Internet sites which have indexes or images of records, or have tips on how to use them
It is NOT the Wiki's purpose to link to every website or list every publication that exists. That would overwhelm and clutter the Wiki and would bury – rather than highlight – important and relevant items.
*Give research strategies
*Highlight best sources
*


This purpose is NOT to list every source.
It is the intent of this project to add great content that users need to every Utah county page. That includes:
*Links to online resources, such as indexes or images of records or tips on how to use those records.
*Links to the Family History Library collections.
*Local respositories (libraries, archives, museums) and what they may have.
*Parent counties, neighboring counties, any record loss, brief history, and more.
 
Most of the content will be added by people like you who get training and follow guidelines (called Tasks) for what to add and where to find it.
