Known Issues
Question: What is Soundex?

Answer: Soundex is a phonetic index that groups together names that sound alike but are spelled differently, for example, Stewart and Stuart. This helps searchers find names that are spelled differently than originally expected, a relatively common genealogical research problem. For more information click here to read the Soundex article in FamilySearch wiki.

Problem: There are a number of reels missing from this collection.
