The Facebook Community Page Project
  • Pages and Groups on Facebook - Every time I find a page or group on Facebook that is associated with a specific locality somewhere in the world, I add a link to the page. This is a rapidly growing list and anyone is welcome to add to it.
  • Research Communities on Facebook - This page lists all the community pages on Facebook that are sponsored by FamilySearch. The administrators are volunteers. They answer research questions and post about new records and resources for doing research in the records for the locality or ethnic group they administrate. Anyone can volunteer to help with this community effort.
