FamilySearch has expanded again, adding over
a million records and images to its already gargantuan digital depository.

It bolstered state-specific collections, as well as collections from Canada, Spain
and Venezuela, by adding more names and digital images to existing indexes. FamilySearch
also updated the U.S. Social Security Death Index database with more names and digital
images, and created new databases of records that were not previously available online.

The new and updated collections include:

• Indiana
  Marriages, 1811-1959
• Minnesota
  Will Records, 1849-1985
• Ohio:
  Cuyahoga County Probate Files, 1813-1900
• Tennessee
  Death Records, 1914-1955
• Texas

• Wisconsin
  Probate Estate Case Files, 1861-1933
