Finding our links in History - One Genealogist's thoughts, tidbits, and inspirations - All very much randomly posed. One person's life does not stand-alone but interacts with family, neighbors, community, and history. Our Trees become Tangled just by living. -- T.

Tech Tuesday: Family Search Indexing App
Available in both the Android & iPhone/iPad markets, this free Family Search app displays image snippets from historical documents that contains a name, date, place-name, or other relevant information. You simply transcribe what you see in the image, and the FamilySearch indexing system eventually adds it to the collection of free genealogy records available at www.familysearch.org.
Go ahead - give it a try!
Warning: This app can be addicting.
