Identifying record offices holding original sources microfilmed by LDS

Stuart Raymond

It should be possible to identify the record offices which hold the original sources microfilmed by LDS. How does one do this? I have been unable to identify anything about this on the website.

FYI

I am just another 'lowly' User/Patron ...

Just in passing ...

With the FHL Film number (&/or "DGS Number), you should be able to search the 'FamilySearch' "Catalogue".

To obtain, the "Details", of where the Record, was obtained/scanned, by doing a:

Film/Fiche/Image Group Number (DGS) Search ...

I hope, that this may help/assist, somewhat.

On each page in the FamilySearch Catalog, the name of the author/record custodian and the repository where the records were stored at the time they were microfilmed are listed.

For example: https://www.familysearch.org/search/catalog/153790?availability=Family%20History%20Library

These records are by the Church of Scotland in Lesmahagow. In 1952-83 when they were microfilmed they were archived at New Register House in Edinburgh.

On some New York State marriage records I accessed over the weekend, DGS 4664868, the first image on the film is

Is that the kind of information you are seeking, @Stuart Raymond?
