Indexing

Many people have told me that indexing is hard and they don't know how to index so they can't do that part of family history. I'm here to tell you that it doesn't have to be hard and you can do it! Just like all new things, indexing takes practice, but once you get the hang of it, it can be really fun!

Brittany Beattle offers 8 great reasons to try indexing out in her article, "Getting into Indexing," from the 2012 New Era magazine. Click on the article title to go check it out!

Family Search has a short video on what indexing is and how it works.

There is also an interactive tutorial where you can practice indexing before you start the real deal. Click on this link to try it out: Test Drive 

I promise that not only will indexing become easier as you do it, but you will also feel closer to your ancestors and the Savior when you are participating in this work!
