June 10, 2025 — Bill Buckner (Waco Public Library) — Experimenting in the FamilySearch Lab
The Secret is Out! FamilySearch is testing new research tools. Join Bill Buckner as he explores FamilySearch's Full-Text Search, an experimental search function that can search every word of text, even in handwritten documents that have not been previously indexed. Discover never-before-seen historical records from the FamilySearch digitized microfilm collection. Bill will provide step-by-step instructions to enhance your genealogical search.
Whether you're seeking to break through a brick wall or simply want to learn more about your ancestors, this program offers something for everyone.
