Added and Updated Record Collections at FamilySearch.org - Week of 3 to 9 October 2020

  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 9 October 2020, there are 2,875 historical record collections on FamilySearch (an increase of 2 from last week):

New and updated collections this week are:

My friend, Marshall, is away on holiday, so I've reverted to the old way of showing these collections, wherein FamilySearch doesn't tell us what was ADDED for several days.  I will update this post and add the word ADDED when I find out what was ADDED via email.

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.
