I received this question from a patron. I haven't used ancestral File much. Can anyone help with this question?


How can you find a family group sheet for my ancestor Heber John Sheffield AFN 21KW-TW in the AF Submission Sheets? I want to find the group sheets submitted by JoAnn Roueche that you see listed under Notes in this Genealogies section. In the past I have been able to locate family group sheets using the Submission Code & microfilm number listed after her or another submitters name. This seems to be missing at this time. Is there another place to find this code? How can I find the records in the AF submission sheets collection without a Submission code?

    I am going to include several help articles that will hopefully you find the information that you are seeking. https://www.familysearch.org/wiki/en/Ancestral_File On this wiki there is a section called Tips on searching Ancestral File. That may help you. https://www.familysearch.org/en/help/helpcenter/article/how-do-i-search-the-pedigree-resource-file-and-other-genealogies On this search area there is a Record Option button that is labeled Ancestral File number. Since you have the AFN number for Heber John Sheffield you can possibly search by that number. When I looked for that AFN number I did not find the information for Heber so you may need to put in more information to find him.

    Thank you for contacting FamilySearch. It has been a pleasure helping you. Best wishes as you continue finding records for your family.
