Idaho Falls Idaho FamilySearch Center/Discovery

 What does it mean to "Discover, Gather, Connect"? This is a wonderful catchphrase to help keep us focused on what family history is about. If we are inexperienced and just starting out in family history, we may opt to "discover" more about our deceased relatives. Discovering helps us "connect" with our deceased relatives. Others may decide to focus on "gathering". By preserving our rich heritage of photos, documents, and stories, we are gathering. Others may enjoy finding new family members to add to Family Tree. This is also gathering. Indexing is another way that we can gather names of deceased individuals to a searchable database. As we go through the process of discovery and gathering, our hearts "connect" to those we learn about.
