New Registration and Sign-in for FamilySearch Websites

FamilySearch,
the genealogical organization of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, is moving towards using a unified sign-in system for all of their Websites. This change will allow users to have the same

were able to access Temple Ordinance information not generally available to other users of the Website.
