Hello Fellow Researchers,
I have been bombarded with questions on the Family Search Website and would
like to pass on to you the information I received when I spoke to an
"Official" Church
spokesperson at Family Search.
He advised me of the following:
The OFFICIAL LDS Church website is
LDS.ORG
Go to media resources and find News update.
The church is posting updates as they come in as to the state of the family
search.
Within 3 or 4 minutes of the NEWS UPDATE ANNOUNCING the FAMILY SEARCH
is online. They will post it THERE! SO Keep checking. Should be a couple of
days.
It will be a MASSIVE SITE. They are prepared to test this site using anyone
who wishes to go to it and use it. THERE WILL BE NO PASSWORD TO ACCESS IT.
The rumor about the password was incorrect. When the site was put up it was
restricted to a few....about 100 people who designed it and are putting the
finishing touches on it, someone there LEAKED, YES LEAKED, (AN EMPLOYEE) and
that is why some of you got in. When the masses bombarded the site it
crashed
cause it was not finished. They have now given each worker an
INDIVIDUAL
PASSWORD,
SOOOOO IF it gets leaked again they will know who did it. It has been
postponed
being put online a few days because of the crash.
There are now about 12 popular stories going around about Family Search. I
ASSURE YOU MINE CAME FROM A CHURCH SPOKESMAN.
IF you pass information about the site on to others please just send them
this
message I have sent you. The whole message.
Now please remember this.
1. Go to
LDS.org
2. Find Media Resources
3. Check News Updates
That will inform you when it is going online. Please notify everyone you
know
who will be interested.
I hope this helps you all. You have my permission to pass this note on
to any Genealogy Lists you wish. Again, Please pass the whole note not
just sections of it or we will have more rumors.
Thanks,
Karen Gaughan in Pa. Pahendrsht(a)aol.com
