    @N. Shobb.

    There was an internal system error that has since been resolved. Are you still experiencing difficulties with this article?

    If I know the volume record and group number, can I search for it to see if it is in the catalog? I know it was in the Lithuanian archive.

    Yes, you can search the FamilySearch Catalog with the Image Group Number.

    Unfortunately it has been made virtually impossible to conduct a personal search of people and places by the implementation of 'so-called' improvements. Machines do not pick up on vital clues, so the researcher is never able to access the information they require. A very great loss to genealogists.

    Is there a way to search records/collection on ship name? So many of the passenger lists aren’t indexed correctly, so you cannot find the person or family in a search, but if you know the name of the ship they came on, perhaps one could find their ancestors easier.
