The Vault is where we keep links to extra articles and videos on family history topics.<\/p>\n<p>The Vault has been a popular (but not creepy) hangout place for genealogists, since The Family History Guide was created. We recently added link number 1,000 to the Vault\u2014and we&#8217;re still growing. So this is a great opportunity to do a bit of tidying up and reorganizing as we prepare for the future.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What&#8217;s New<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s a quick look at what&#8217;s new in the Vault (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.thefhguide.com\/vault.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">www.thefhguide.com\/vault.html<\/a>) &#8230;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><em>Simplified topic list in the header area<\/em>. We&#8217;ve narrowed down the list to make it easier to navigate. Here&#8217;s what it looks like at the time of this posting:<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2723\" src=\"http:\/\/www.thefhguide.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/vault-header.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"802\" height=\"95\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thefhguide.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/vault-header.png 802w, https:\/\/www.thefhguide.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/vault-header-300x36.png 300w, https:\/\/www.thefhguide.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/vault-header-768x91.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 802px) 100vw, 802px\" \/><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><em>New categories<\/em>. We&#8217;ve added quite a few new categories (&#8220;Choices&#8221;) in the Vault. In many cases this makes for smaller groups of links that are easier to scan at a glance. Each Choice can be opened or closed to show or hide content.<\/li>\n<li><em>Cleanup<\/em>. We found a few links that were outdated, so we replaced them with more current content; we hope you&#8217;ll enjoy them, as well as the many new links that have been added. As of this writing, there are links to 419 videos and 613 articles &#8230; 1033 in all.<\/li>\n<li><em>Pictures<\/em>. We&#8217;ve added a few pictures in the Vault, for a bit of variety.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>What&#8217;s Next<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Stay tuned for the next big thing: we&#8217;re adding links to over 400 articles and videos for Partner topics in FamilySearch, Ancestry, MyHeritage, and Findmypast.
