I can find the extracted information, but when I click the link to take me to the actual record, I get can't be found! Here's a link. Go to it and then click the link to the actual record. https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:QKDW-BBCR I always work with the source document as extractions have enough errors as to be untrustworthy.

    What happened to all the links to the missionary database docs? I'm trying to view the below for example, but every link that says to view is broken. https://history.churchofjesuschrist.org/landing/missionary-database?lang=$lang

    https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:QKDW-RGPL

    "The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, Missionary Registers (Worldwide), 1860-1937," database, FamilySearch (https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:QKDW-RGPL : 27 November 2019), Jeremiah Hatch, Utah Territory, United States; records extracted by FamilySearch and images digitized by Church History library, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints; citing , Missionary department missionary registers 1860-1959, CR 301 22, Church History Library, Salt lake City, Utah.

    The links to view the actual records don't work.

    Hi,

    FamilySearch Tree is wonderful - I appreciate all you do and make available!

    I just wanted to notify you that for the images of this collection: The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, Missionary Registers (Worldwide), 1860-1937, on FamilySearch, the link is broken.

    When I try to view it in the source list on my grandmother's profile page, I click on view document, then it takes me to a box that says "View on history.lds.org" - when I click on it, a not found message appears.

    Olita Melville KWCQ-FKY, 1927

    Kind Regards

    Hello.

    Would anyone know why the church history missionary link is not found?

    I'm not able to copy the URL to this page for some reason, but it's found in my ancestor's sources:

    Hugo Daniel Edward Peterson

    Male

    15 August 1860 – 22 July 1957 • KWCH-5LN


    1923 Hugo Danl Edward Peterson, "Early Mormon Missionaries"

    https://history.churchofjesuschrist.org/missionary/individual/hugo-danl-edward-peterson-1860

    Thanks for any assistance you can provide.

    I am not sure why FamilySearch is dragging their feet on this dead area that once connected the tree to the Church history library's registers of early missionaries.


    Cheers,

    Kevan

    Good news! The link is working. It might redirect and take a minute to load, but it is working. Thanks for bringing it to our attention.
