Mexican Genealogy ResourcesAre you looking for resources for your Mexican genealogy research all in one place? The number one site I use for my Mexican genealogy research is FamilySearch.org, and it is FREE! Records: These include the Mexican Civil Registration records and the Catholic Church parish records which are searchable by name now, which makes it so much easier; I remember having to painstakingly search the Mexican Civil Registration Records image by image just a few years ago! Some of the Church parish records still need to be searched image by image though. They also have the 1930 Mexican Census, and so much more! You can find the Mexican Record Resources here: Mexico Online Genealogy Records Research Wiki: The Research Wiki is a fantastic tool on FamilySearch .org, that will help you with your research. From there, you can search records, get research advice and tutorials, Spanish handwriting tools, a Spanish genealogical word list, dictionaries, Mexican history, and more! I did not learn about the Wiki until I took a trip to Salt Lake a couple of years ago, not to mention it is fairly new. The FamilySearch Wiki started back in 2008, but did not have nearly what they have now! You can find the Mexican Genealogy Research Wiki here: Mexico Genealogy FamilySearch Communities: You can also “Ask the Community” for advice, translations and more! You can find and join the research community here: Latin American Genealogy Research Interactive Questions: Have you used FamilySearch's Mexico Online Genealogy Records, their Mexico Genealogy Research Wiki or their Latin American Genealogy Research Community yet? Let me know below in the comments! I'd love to hear which of their resources you used in your Mexican genealogy research and how it has helped you climb your family tree!

It's great that records for Mexican life events are becoming more accessible. FamilySearch does such a terrific job.
