Added and Updated Record Collections at FamilySearch.org - Week of 14 to 20 July 2019

I am trying to keep up with the new and updated record collections at FamilySearch   (https://familysearch.org/search/collection/list) every week.

As of 20 July 2019, there were 2,526 historical record collections on FamilySearch (an increase of 3 from last week):

The added or updated collections are:

United States Census, 1940134,827,283Jul 19, 2019
England and Wales Census, 191136,354,828Jul 17, 2019
Georgia Deaths, 1928-1942553,236Jul 17, 2019
Scotland Census, 18713,349,414Jul 17, 2019
United States Census, 187040,350,163Jul 16, 2019
Nova Scotia Births, 1864-1877218,587Jul 14, 2019

===========================================

In order to select a specific record collection on FamilySearch, go to  https://familysearch.org/search/collection/list and use the "Filter by collection name" feature in the upper left-hand corner and use keywords (e.g. "church england") to find collections with those keywords.

Each one of the collections listed above has a Research Wiki page (use the "Learn more" link).  It would be very useful if the Wiki page for each collection listed the dates for when the collection was added as a new collection and the dates for major updates also.
