I was mistaken about the new.familysearch.org log in. WWW.FAMILYSEARCH.ORG
has public access but the NEW.FAMILYSEARCH.ORG log in does require the
membership information. Please accept my apology for the miss information. I
appreciate the time wasted chasing down bad information and am particularly
sensitive when it is my bad info.

Thank you Kathleen and Juanita for the correction.

I believe you are mistaken on the sign-in for Familysearchlabs.com. I am not

LDS but am able to use the site after a simple user and password sign-up.
Maybe I am only able to use part of it.
