    Found new sources that changed the life story of Charles Lewis Mills -- when will they appear in that so-called "Discovery" page (boring) ??? Can users put stuff in?? Or does Family Search have to do it?? It's a nice idea if you have the time to do it right. Putting in interesting stuff takes TIME & IMAGINATION!! Good Luck !

    I am just another 'lowly' User/Patron ...

    Regarding the "Discovery Pages" ...

    The ONLY thing that one can do, is to make sure, that the "Details", for a "Deceased" individual/person in "Family Tree" of 'Family Search', are as correct; as, one can make them.

    Sometimes, what appears in the "Discovery Pages", is the "Standardized" DETAILS (ie. 'Date' and 'Place'); as, set in "Family Tree" of 'Family Search', NOT necessarily the DETAILS (ie. 'Date' and 'Place') as recorded/appears.

    Question: When you say, "... a story ...", do you mean either, in the "Life Sketch"; or, as a "Memory"?

    Once, you add INFORMATION, against an individual/person in "Family Tree" of 'Family Search', they say it takes, a COUPLE of WEEKS, for the "Update" to appear in the "Discovery Pages".

    'No', Users/Patrons CANNOT "... put stuff in ...".

    The 'Design' of the FORMAT of the "Discovery Pages" is the SOLE purview of 'FamilySearch'.

    Those "Discovery Pages", are NOT meant, to be 'Serious' work of 'Research'.

    The "Discovery Pages", are SIMPLY, to enable, those "Deceased" individuals/person, in "Family Tree" of 'FamilySearch', to be LOCATED in a 'Search' of the INTERNET - that is it, nothing more, nothing less.

    Really, just another way to BRING people to "Family Tree" of 'FamilySearch' - nothing more, nothing less.

    I hope this helps, somewhat.
