Talk:Chambers County, Alabama Genealogy

Wiki pages
I have several complaints. First, how difficult it now is to even find the wiki pages. I used to regularly access the wiki from the main FamilySearch page. Maybe I'm missing an obvious link somewhere but the only way I could find this page this time was by doing a Google search.

Second, the county wiki pages have become way too generic. They have a lot of general information about types of records, but don't always have information specific to that county. For example, Chambers County, Alabama wiki page regarding probate records has a link to the online Alabama probate records at FamilySearch even though Chambers County is NOT one of the counties included in that collection, I can't find information on whether they're still being indexed or are simply not and never will be included.

This is a work in progress forever. Depends on volunteers. I have seen some mistakes made and need to be corrected time to time upon discovery.

Volunteers assigned to do placement of links as instructed.

The format was established by the committee over 5 years ago and we are sticking to that to develop from there.

As for Alabama Probates, - not one hundred percent indexed. They are in Image Only browse able. " Alabama Image Only Historical Records Can't find records for your ancestors when you search? Try our collections that haven't been indexed yet. Select a collection to start browsing the images." Dsammy 05:04, 6 January 2016 (UTC)
