FAMILY HISTORY

Members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, also known as �?Mormons�? are actively involved in family history work. Many members do research to identify their ancestors. According to Church teachings members have an obligation to deceased ancestors who did not have the gospel of Jesus Christ in their life on earth.

The Church operates the largest genealogical library in the world: the Family History Library in Salt Lake City, Utah. It is open to the public and offers access to millions of volumes of birth, marriage, death, and other records. There are no fees for any of the services.

The Church also operates branch Family History Libraries throughout the world that are open to anyone interested in family history.

You may trace your ancestors and find information about family history resources at the Church’s family history Web site, www.familysearch.org.
