digital access to Film #2382629

CLeonhardt

I have digitally accessed 2 films from Granite Mountain Record Vault for more than a decade - film # 2382629/Image Group No 8243167 and film #2382620/Image Group No 8243168. I recently opened the Catalog Search option for Alfdorf, Germany and found that film #2382629 was no longer able to access that file. Would it be possible for someone to follow up to let me know why that film is not longer available. I am still able to access film 2382630 digitally - for which I am grateful as it makes searching German family register books much easier.

unfortunately some record holders have changed their agreement with FamilySearch and some films are no longer available to be seen. I would check to see if the film would be available at a FamilySearch Center.

@SerraNola Could you check this one for a possible "oops" please? The two DGS cover the same collection, divided alphabetically.
Thanks.

@CLeonhardt The date range in the metadata for this film was incorrectly assigned as 1777-1986. As sometimes happens a year is pulled from something other than the actual records. It this case it was the year that the book was compiled. After this correction the permissions should be changed on the next update. This will take a few weeks so keep checking back.

Thanks for bringing this to our attention!
