FamilySearch expanded its free online archives in January 2023 with 26 million new, name-searchable genealogy records from 41 countries, including 1.8 million from the world’s cemeteries in Find-A-Grave Index. Over 1 million records each were added for Austria, France, Ukraine (in Cherkasy and Poltava) and the United States.

Thousands more were added to other collections for Belarus, France, Germany, Mexico, S Africa,  Ukraine (in Mykolaiv, Ternopil, and Zaporizhzhia), the United States and Zimbabwe. Three new collections also added thousands of records for the United Kingdom in England, Military Pension and Service Records, 1702–1933, British India Office, Births and Baptisms, 1712–1965, and Royal Air Force Service Records, 1912–1945.
