The conservation of any kind of record is essential. This gives the researcher the opportunity to follow the winding path of a families pattern without compromising authenticity. The Church of The Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints first initiated conservation of human genealogy through microfilm.
The process of microfilming was done with the aim of helping Mormon researchers, but is also available to any researcher regardless of religion. All inbound information about the genealogy of humans came from a wide range of resources and individuals which were not directly affiliated with the church. This system of microfilming has facilitated increasing interest in genealogy. Accessing these microfilms is possible by visiting a local family history research center.
