Creating a Community Project FamilySearch Account

Tamara Stevenson

Not sure if this is the right place to list this discussion, but giving it a try. Our local family history center is teaming with our local county museum to digitize their photo collection, containing several thousand photos. We would like to add these to FamilySearch for those deceased persons found in the photos. Our concern is having our local contributors use their own personal FamilySearch account to upload the photos. They are not our families and we don't necessary what to have all of those extra photos on our own personal FamilySearch account. Has anyone created a "group" account to be used for the purpose of uploading large photo collections to FamilySearch? Is this even allowed on FamilySearch?

Hello

My first thought is you can communicate with FamilySearch using the contact details in this linked Help Article and see if you receive a favourable response:

How do I donate to FamilySearch?

I wish you success. Your idea sounds wonderful!

Cheerio for now!
