Just found this. I cannot tell you how much indexing has given me anxiety. This really helped alot.

I have been indexing for many years for Family Search and my main grievance is the lack of UK projects !

[@scottchandler4844]

Hi Mauri! I watched your video about Indexing! It was great. I have a request. May I insert you video about Indexing in our ward/church family history newsletter? We have many who are beginners or need review and we are trying to get people excited about Indexing in our church ward. Thank-you for your time.

I have my account and my goal this year is do INDEXING. I clicked trying to get the records to index but it didn't give any. What can I do?

[@tammygibbs559]

I am new to indexing, while doing a few, I noticed something a little confusing. When filling out the File Date, I noticed the filing date is in the upper left hand corner, But when you click on the example of where the date is, it takes you to the recorded date. Which shows the filing date is different from the recorded date. Recorded date doesn't mean the same as Filing date, so I'm a little confused.

If only they still taught cursive in school. It would make this so much easier. They only taught me cursive for a month in 3rd grade

[@starlegends3092]

I know cursive and its still hard to read

[@applehoneypieph8622]

Thank you. 🇵🇭

Hello beautiful it my pleasure to meet you

[@rachelpetersen8575]

Should it not be indexed if it is missing stuff?

[@rachelpetersen8575]

Never mind

When I did indexing years ago, the rule was that you entered ONLY what was there, exactly as it was originally recorded. She mentioned the same thing. No guesses, no expanding of abbreviations, no spelling corrections, etc. Enter only what you see. It is very tempting to change or correct something to be helpful, but don't do it. Follow the instructions. Good luck.

How do u index if there are multiple names?

[@evanepic3599]

Create a new entry or use a new entry if its already there
