I think allowing users to participate indexing their hometown can have benefits :
- Users will be more familiar with the names and will find out more easily when it's difficult to decipher.
- Indexing your own town and the neighbouring towns can be more motivative and will probably involve more users.
This idea can be extended to the birth towns of a user's ancestry.
What are your thoughts on this?

But if you want to suggest certain records for a future Indexing Project, FS Staff do read this and they might be able to prioritize those records.0
