Layton Utah FamilySearch Center/Staff Training

This page is dedicated for the Layton Utah FamilySearch Center Staff Training Only
As Church Service Missionaries, we have been called to assist families and individuals as they identify their ancestors and prepare names for temple ordinances. This calling incorporates teaching the patrons, no matter their skill level, how to use the FamilySearch Family Tree and the related records and materials found on FamilySearch.org. We also assist those of other faiths as they search for their ancestors.
