Exactly; those microfiche catalogs have not been updated for a very
long time.<br>
<br>
The Family History Library catalog at <a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="http://www.familysearch.org">www.familysearch.org</a> proved to be
uncooperative this morning. I was able to a search on the catalog
search at the beta site. As an example these are the results that came
up on the beta search for Scotland Banff Keith Church history:<br>

<div>I believe you have copies of the FHL locality catalog on
microfiche. I remember seeing the locality catalog on microfiche on my
first visit to the FHL in Salt Lake City many years ago, but not on
recent visits. Now, just about everyone uses the locality catalog
online (it is now called "Place Search").</div>

All,<br>
<br>
Thank you all for your advice and explanations, but I am still getting
nowhere with identifying what these microfiche titles mean. Perhaps if
I load one up and look at some of the pages, I can get an idea.<br>
<br>
But here are some random examples<br>
<br>
Line One: Family History Library, Locality Catolog 22 MAR 88, 0060<br>
Line Two: (smaller font): England, York, Sheffield, Genealogy, (very
small number) 0230<br>
<br>
Line One: Family History Library, Locality Catalog 28 MAR 88, 0001<br>
Line Two: Vifginia, (small number) 0854<br>
<br>
Here is a series:<br>
<br>
Line One: Family History Library, Locality Catalog, 22 MAR 88,
000<br>
Line Two: Scotland - Civil Registration, 0728<br>
<br>
(Leaving out the Family History Library words on line one):<br>
<br>
Line One: Locality Catalog, 22 MAR 88, 0002<br>
LIne Two: Scotland - Civil Registration, 0729<br>
<br>
Line One: Locality Catalog, 22 MAR 88, 0003<br>
Line Two: Scotland - Military Records - Army, 0730<br>
<br>
Line One: Locality Catalog, 22 MAR 88, 0004<br>
Line Two: Scotland, Banff, Keith - Church History, 0731<br>
<br>
Line One: Locality Catalog, 22 MAR 88, 0005<br>
Line Two: Scotland, Lanark, Govan - Occupations, 0732<br>
<br>
Line One: Locality Catalog, 22 MAR 88, 0006<br>
Line Two: Scotland - Shetland - Population, 0733<br>
<br>
========<br>
<br>
The top number seems to refer only to the microfich page with this
certain record collection. The 2nd numbers seem to follow consecutively
as well, but to what they refer I am cluess.<br>
<br>
I have typed in just the titles on line two but only end uup a very
broad result and if it remotely matches, it is never fo microfiche.<br>
<br>
If anyone can explain this code to me, I'll be very grateful. I don't
relish the though of reading 500 sheets of microfiche when surely there
is a catalog for these SOMEWHERE.<br>
