How can I delete a certain amount of entries?
Hello, I am doing the Luxembourg 1900 census indexing. I have noticed that there are 30 entries, which is the max there are supposed to be per each image.

Would someone please check these 2 images for accuracies? It has been a while since I

Hi folks. My grandfather has the wrong death date under his name at the top of his page: Clyde Homer Jacobs Male 31 October 1885 – 5 February 1986 KZP2-PQH His death year was actually 1968.

Does anyone know if they will ever reopen? I have asked Family Search and they claim no knowledge. If they don't know who would???
Feedback on the Books search
I do not use the Books search anymore because the relevancy of the search results is abysmal. I revert to the Worldcat catalog to see if FamilySearch has the book or the old Catalog search. The latest example of failed searches using the Books search function: "Margaret Matthews Cowart" with and without quotations "Old…

This problem started in Feb 2022. I believe they did not understand they should check for duplicates when uploading a Gedcom. I messaged the person about the huge number of duplicates they had created and had no reply. Since then this person has added hundreds more duplicates, adding the same family members to each of the…

***Update*** Uploading images
Well guys, there are still issues uploading images. The engineers are working on fixing this. What they think is that it is working if you add 1 image but if you do more than 1 it hangs and none of them load. If you are adding images here in the community, try doing 1 at a time. I am reporting discussions with pending…
