'''FamilySearch Historical Record Collections''' provide online access to indexes and digital images of records held by the Family History Library. The collections can be accessed from the [https://www.familysearch.org FamilySearch homepage] or directly at {{RecordSearch}}. New collections are being uploaded as quickly as the records are digitized and indexed. Originally, the term 'Pilot' was used to indicate that the site is still under development but with the introduction of the updated FamilySearch site in December of 2010, the name "Pilot" was dropped from the designation. | |||
