SALT LAKE CITY, Utah - In what officials say will be a quantum leap forward
in providing family history information online, The Church of Jesus Christ
of Latter-day Saints has announced a plan designed to eventually help
provide access to billions of family records on the Web, in addition to the
tens of billions of records it is currently indexing out of its own Granite
Vault microfilm archives.
