24. What is the IGI?


    The International Genealogical Index is maintained by the FHL and
    is available on microfiche or CD-ROM at your local LDS FHC, and
    online at <http://www.familysearch.org/>.  It contains millions of
    birthdates, christening dates, marriages, etc., indexed by surname.
    It is by no means a complete index to all records, however.
    Furthermore, it should be considered to be just an index; you
    should always consult the source documents for IGI entries of
    interest, as they may contain more information and the IGI may
    have errors in transcription.
