Why browse the images?

Many records for Latin America, Spain, Brazil and other parts of the world have been indexed and are name searchable on the FamilySearch website but every good researcher knows it is always important to view the original record for  Names of grandparents in baptism/birth records  Names of parents in marriage records  Names of spouse and/or parents in death records. Sometimes you might also find names of surviving children.  Names of other relatives serving as witnesses or godparents How to browse the images To browse images in the FamilySearch historical records collections follow these simple steps. The example we will use will be for marriage records in Tepetongo, Zacatecas, Mexico. We are looking for the marriage of Florencio Adame and Antonia Robles which took place on 27 November 1872.

10. . Examine the images page by page looking for the date desired. Normally the images are in chronological order. You can use the arrows on either side of the image number to go from page to page. The arrow pointing to the right will advance the images. The arrow pointing to the left will take you backwards. You may also jump through the images by inserting a number. In this example they year 1872 should be near the front of the record set but 1872 is not the first year. Therefore I might start by entering the number 100 in the image number box and see what the date is for that image. If I have gone too far, I can go backwards. If I haven’t gone far enough, I can enter a new number. In this example the image we want can be found in image 127 in the upper right corner. This is the link to the image: [[2]]
