Copying pictures from Memories to a home program

Shannon Agee

We can copy one picture at a time from Family Search Memories but it would be great if we could copy multiple pictures/documents from FS to a home program. Is that possible? I haven't been able to find anything on that.

Why not contact the contributor(s) who added the memories? You may learn more about the family, and the person or persons may be happy to share better-quality images. Doing that would also maintain the integrity of the source, an important part of genealogy. Why Provenance Matters

The person asking for help is the contributor. He put all his digitized pictures into FamilySearch but now needs to have copies to give to relatives not on FamilySearch.

The user deleted them from his home computer after uploading? Against all best practices? No website is infallible.

An option is to provide the ancestor link to those that he want's to share the images with. He can also share a link to a specific photo. For example https://ancestors.familysearch.org/en/KWJ8-85P
