Task List
Task List

Set Up

 * 1) Make sure you are logged in to FamilySearch and the FamilySearch Wiki.
 * 2) Use this link to get to the Iowa County Listings and Tracking Page.  Make sure the tab at the bottom says Naturalization!
 * 3) Some of these entries may already be on the page.  If so, please make sure that the link goes where it is supposed to and that it is formatted correctly.
 * 4) Use this link to access the listings for Iowa counties in the FamilySearch Catalog.  Select the "Places within United States, Iowa" link to choose the correct county.
 * 5) After selecting the county, select the Naturalization and Citizenship section.
 * If there ARE NO records under the Naturalization and Citizenship section:
 * Go back to the Iowa County Listings and Tracking Page for Naturalizations and add a note in the "Comment" section for that county stating there was nothing in the Catalog.
 * Go to the next Iowa County.
 * If there ARE records under the Naturalization and Citizenship section, proceed with the Catalog Instructions below.

Adding Image-Only Catalog Links Instructions
1. Click on the Naturalization and Citizenship Catalog entry link to display the records listings.

2. Select the first record.

3. Scroll down to the Film/Digital Notes section and look for a camera icon on the right of the note.
 * There may or may not be a key over the camera icon. We will use them both.

4. First copy the template to the Naturalization and Citizenship section of the County page:


 * * DATE-DATE (*); at FamilySearch Catalog — images

5. Add the dates. Copy them exactly from the title. It is not necessary to look for dates if they are not in the title. Leave the dates blank, if that is the case.
 * Sometimes there will be two sets of dates such as "Probate Records 1857-1952; Index, 1857-1965"
 * In the first date slot place the earliest date (DATE-DATE). So 1857 would go in the first slot (1857-DATE)
 * In the second date slot place the latest date (1857-1965)

EXAMPLE:
 * (with dates) * 1907-1924 (*); at FamilySearch Catalog — images
 * (without dates) * (*); at FamilySearch Catalog — images

6. Next add the title #.
 * The title number is obtained from the URL line. As you read across the URL, it will start off with familysearch.org/search/catalog/######? plus more characters.
 * The title number is the number immediately after the word catalog/ and before the ?
 * Copy just the number from the URL line and place it where it says title #

EXAMPLE:
 * * 1907-1924 (*); at FamilySearch Catalog — images

7. Leave the item part as-is.

8. After the disp=, place the title of the film exactly as written except capitalize the first letters in the title. No need to add author or anything else.

EXAMPLE:
 * * 1907-1924 (*); at FamilySearch Catalog — images

9. If the word Index is in the title, please change the "— images" at the end of the line to say "— index & images."

10. And it should look like this when previewed:

EXAMPLE:
 * 1907-1924 (*); at FamilySearch Catalog — index & images

11. If there are NO other entries in the Catalog, go to the next section.
