  • RLP 353: Citing Digitized Records on Family Search

    RLP 353: Citing Digitized Records on Family Search
    Apr 14 2025
    Nicole and Diana discuss citing digitized records from FamilySearch. Nicole explains that FamilySearch has billions of digitized records that can be attached, downloaded, or added to a research log. They emphasize the importance of precise source citations. Diana illustrates the challenge of citing digitized microfilm records, using an example from Russell County, Alabama's Orphan's Court Docket. She explains that the same record can be accessed through "Images" or the FamilySearch Catalog, resulting in different image numbers and citations. Diana discusses how viewing the same record through different "image group views" changes the image number and citation, even with the same URL. She shares tips for creating clear FamilySearch citations, including citing the physical information, digital information with the full URL, and the original holder of the image. Diana also mentions how cutting off the URL before the question mark leads to a different view of the record. Nicole reiterates the importance of using both "Images" and the "Catalog" for complete research and emphasizes that clear source citations allow researchers to return to the source at any time. Listeners will learn how to properly cite digitized records on FamilySearch, navigate different views of the same records, and avoid confusion in their genealogical research.
