FINDING FS MEMORIES ITEMS UPLOADED BY OTHERS

 

Many of you know how to upload photos / documents to the FamilySearch Memories / Gallery area.

 

but did you know youc an actually browse through Memories items uploaded by others

 

You can do so on the FS Memories FIND option

 

but you need to realize that if you search on multipel terms you will need to prefic each item with a "+" (plus sign)

 

Here is an example of a search on Yancey Family Bibles

 

https://www.familysearch.org/photos/find?searchTerms=+yancey +family +bible&searchType=text-search&searchCategories=IMAGE,PDF,TEXT,AUDIO,ALBUM&page=1&maxRecords=50&firstRecord=0&_=1612067349794

Smith Probate (records)

https://www.familysearch.org/photos/find?searchTerms=+smith +probate&searchType=text-search&searchCategories=IMAGE,PDF,TEXT,AUDIO,ALBUM&page=1&maxRecords=50&firstRecord=0&_=1612067349794

 

You can come up with your own set of terms - just replace Yancey with your own name

and then add your own searc terms

Just remember to pefic each term with the + sign

    Thanks so much! I didn't know the exact way to input more than one search term!
