Family Search Records Update

FamilySearch has added to its collections more than 2.9 million indexed records and images for Australia, Canada, Peru, and the United States.  The entire article, including links to all the new records can be read by clicking here.

Of notable interest to most of us is the fact that the Canada Passengers List collection from 1881 – 1922 has been updated.   There is now a total of 191,573 records.   Most of us are either first or second-generation immigrants or our ancestors were immigrants to Canada so it is definitely worth a search through the records to find any of your ancestors on a passenger list.

Good luck with your search – you may just find the passenger list for that elusive ancestor we all seem to have!
