What is it that is of the type 2:2:2:MMXV-2JC

Of what does the reference 2:2:2:MMXV-2JC comprise between the colons?

Julia Szent-Györgyi

It's part of the URL for something on FS, and it's only really meaningful to the computer. It's sort of analogous to a post office box number: it's how your browser tells FamilySearch's web servers which file it should send over.

The numbers aren't completely random, of course: "2:2:2:" is generally somewhere in Genealogies. (Historical Records generally have "1:1:".)

Thank you, Julia.

You answered my question and demonstrated that someone out there is looking. That's more than good, it's almost unique.
