Did your ancestors come from Westport, County Mayo or Paisley, Scotland. If so, we might be connected. There is an old proverb that says: "Only the rich never have to seek out their relatives". As any genealogist will tell you finding your ancestors and putting flesh on their bones is a long and never ending road. This blog is an attempt to connect with other genealogists "out there".

The International Genealogical Index (IGI) is a database of genealogical records, compiled from several sources, and maintained by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Originally created in 1969, the index was intended to help track the performance of temple ordinances for the deceased.
The IGI contains information submitted for vicarious ordinances by LDS researchers, records obtained from contributors who are not members of the church, and data extracted from microfilmed birth or marriage records. The index contains millions of records of individuals who lived between 1500 and 1900, primarily in the United States, Canada, and Europe.
The IGI contains many duplicate names, accumulated over time from many sources. Many IGI records contain information on the submitter and date of submission. The IGI is available at FamilySearch, the LDS genealogy website.
