Nashua New Hampshire FamilySearch Center

'''I know this is going to seem like a broken record, but because of the snow which has just started here in Nashua, the Family History Center will be closed today, February 14, 2015. We will (hopefully) reopen on Tuesday, February 17, 2015. Thanks for your understanding.''' ===

In addition, for all patrons that have been unable to view films due to all the closings, we will keep all films due back to Salt Lake City from January through March an extra 30 days. ===

'''Our center is located in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Nashua, New Hampshire. We serve southern New Hampshire and parts of Massachusetts. Anyone is welcome to visit; we have a wide variety of books, microfilms, and microfiche available for patrons to use. '''
