Family Search Indexing and Footnote
« on: Thursday 15 November 07 23:51 GMT (UK) »
U.S. Civil War records to be digitized
from FamilySearch.org (23 October 2007):
Landmark agreement will lead to the digitization of millions of genealogical and historical documents
FamilySearch will digitize the first 3,150 Civil War widow pension application files (approximately 500,000 pages). After digitization, these historical documents will be indexed and posted online by Footnote.com with the indices also available for free on www.FamilySearch.org . FamilySearch intends to do all 1,280,000 of these files over the coming years.
