I haven't been able to use recordseek for nearly a week. I keep getting the message that it is an unsecured site and it won't let me proceed. It happened about 6 months ago for about 3 days. I think it has something to do with their certifications. Are you able to do anything about that or suggest a way around it?

    FamilySearch does not support Record Seek. I get the same response when I try to use it. You would need to contact Record Seek and see if they can renew their certification.

    You can still attach an outside source to FamilySearch. The article that is referenced will explain how to do that.

    @Greg Mauchley,

    A recent discussion of this issue suggested going to Http://recordseek.com/about. I had to type it in to my browser to get it to come up without an error.

    As mentioned by @CraigWArmstrong, RecordSeek's security certificate has expired (not their license). If you are able to see a link that says "view website" on Http://recordseek.com/about/, you may be able to get in. There is also a link to "Mobile Install" on this page, so you might be able to use recordseek with the FamilySearch mobile app.

    There is also a detailed discussion of Record Seek on the FamilySearch Research Wiki that may be helpful to you. https://www.familysearch.org/wiki/en/RecordSeek.

    Security is important, but sometimes it can be very frustrating. I'm sorry I can't be more helpful since I don't have experience using RecordSeek.
