where to search for old family group sheet records
I made an appointment online and we didn't have sound but for just a moment. The lady told me that I wasn't looking in the right place for my OLD family group sheet people. I have looked in "Find" and some of the people aren't there.
Is there another place to look for OLD family names that might not have come across when the new computer program was initiated?
Thanks,
Katherine Christensen

We hope we are not misunderstanding your question. Try searching in Genealogies for the people you are looking for. Here are instructions for getting there:
Steps (website)
- Sign in to FamilySearch.org.
- On the FamilySearch home page, click Search.
- Click Genealogies.
We hope this helps.

I can't tell from your other post under Temple if you found the place to view old, original family group sheets or if that was a sheet you already had a copy of. That is, I couldn't tell if that was a screen shot from the collection or a scan of a paper you had. So I'll mention here just to be sure and for other's that might find the collection helpful, you find these sheets by going to the main Search - Records screen then under Find A Collection putting in Family Group Records Collection.
This will bring you to this collection: https://www.familysearch.org/search/collection/2060211 which I find very useful in untangling certain types of incorrect merges.

Well, I have never looked at collection and am not sure how to use it. The A or B is something that was done by us and not by family search.
The image is a photo of an original family group sheet that my grandmother had. I am trying to go through page by page to make sure everyone is recorded. I am finding missing persons in the computer compared to the family group sheets that I have, and am trying to correct them.
I hope that answered your question. I will probably have to make an appointment with someone to show me how "Collection" works. It sounds helpful...
Thanks,
Kathy
