Центры FamilySearch

ПоискоWiki - это потрясающий источник помощи, когда вы сами оказываете кому-либо помощь в Центре семейной истории (ЦСИ). Будучи директором ЦСИ или консультантом, вы и так знаете многое о том, как вести семейную историю. И всё же знать абсолютно всё про исследования во всех частях мира невозможно, и у вас как у человека, который хочет помочь другим, могут возникать вопросы о том, как проводить поиск в том или ином уголке мира.

ПоискоWiki поможет вам. Он может:

• Предоставить вам помощь при консультировании посетителей по вопросам исследований в любой местности.
• Дать другим людям информацию о вашем центре.
• Зафиксировать ваш опыт, чтобы другие консультанты могли им воспользоваться.
• Служить замечательным средством для миссионеров и волонтёров FamilySearch, чтобы они могли делиться той же информацией с патронами.
• Также ПоискоWiki позволяет каждому ЦСИ иметь доступ к большому количеству сведений о том, как проводить исследования и находить исторические записи в определённых городах, областях и странах, без необходимости посещать эти населённые пункты физически.

Research Assistance

In the Wiki, you will find:

• Links to record collections where your ancestor's information could be found.
• Research advice for how to approach research problems.

You won't search for individuals in the Wiki - instead, search for places and topics to discover the records that could contain your ancestors' information. 

To use the Wiki in searching for an ancestor:

1. Think about what you want to know about the ancestor
2. Consider the location where that event may have happened
3. Think about other records that may possibly contain the information you need
4. Work backward, rather than forward (look for a death record before searching for a marriage record)
5. Think about the record trail that we all leave behind
