Update: U.S. State Pages

We recently added more pictures to the U.S. state pages, in the following places for each page:

  • Goal 3, Choice B: Marriage and Death Records
  • Goal 4, Choice A: Church Records
  • Goal 5, Choice A: Emigration and Immigration
  • Goal 6, Choice A: Probate, Land, and Court Records
  • Goal 8, Choice B: Explore Newspapers

Here are some examples, based on the Colorado page in The Family History Guide:

 

 

 

 

 

We’ve also added “More” links for all the FamilySearch QUIKLinks in the state pages. These links take you to helpful pages on the FamilySearch Wiki that offer suggestion about how to best use the record collections pointed to by the QUIKLinks. (There is equivalent information for Ancestry QUIKLinks on the Ancestry search pages themselves, so “More” links are not needed for them.)

For example, here’s a “More” link added to a sample QUIKLink for Colorado County Marriages—click “More” to see the extra page in FamilySearch:

 

 

Enjoy the new photos and links to extra pages! Next up: additional photos and “More” links for Country pages.
