Indexing!

So as I discussed in my last post, October is family history month. I gave you some suggestions on how to participate in this exciting month and now I want to show you how I am giving to family history month.
First off, INDEXING!!!!

Indexing is awesome. It is a huge part of family history because it is through indexing records are able to be found through an online search.There are many records that need to be indexed to help people around the world locate information on their family. 

 I could try and explain this to you, but I think this video will do a better job. 

Indexing doesn't have to take long. In fact just spending five minutes each week to index a small batch can make a huge difference. Who knows what information you will enter and whose research you may impact by your small sacrifice.

Currently indexing through FamilySearch is a downloaded program, but soon it will be fully online.
To access the link to download the program follow this link.
Get Started!
You'll have many options of what to index. There are many different languages, levels of difficulty and even types of records. You can index birth certificates, census records, obituaries and so many more.
Once you decide what batch you want to work on you will be presented with this screen.

What is nice is now all you need to do is follow the guide in entering information. They have it broken down into a spreadsheet asking for the information that will be made searchable.

Indexing isn't hard, and can make the world of difference!!
