Family Search, LDS.org and The Family History Guide

The Family History Guide is becoming more and more prominent in the world of genealogy and family history.  Not only is it featured six time in the Solutions Gallery on the bottom of the home page of Family Search but it is referenced on many pages as a go-to place for further information on lds.org and familysearch.org

Here an example of what I mean, courtesy of Bob Ives, COO of the Family History Guide in an email I received this week.

Note the Blue highlights on this link.

The App Gallery has been replaced by the Solutions Gallery.  In doing so Family Search has eliminated all the Apps that are no long relevant and kept the ones that are.  Find it on the home page of familysearch.org  Sign in and go to the bottom of the page and click on Solutions Gallery.  There you will find the presence of The Family History Guide.  Here is a link to take you right to it.

Many Family Search and Family History Centers have added the Family History Guide to their toolbar at the top of their home screens. 

In my opinion, The Family History Guide is simply a miracle brought forth at this time to help anyone who wants to learn more easily, more efficiently and with more enjoyment. We can all learn from it.  Try it you'll love it. We can all have and learn independent skills with it and then can help others become acquainted with it.
