Oklahoma Genealogy & LDS Family History Centers
Like other areas of the country, many residents of Oklahoma have leapt onboard the genealogy bandwagon, in search of information about their family ancestry. To help them in their search, the Family History Library in Salt Lake City, Utah, has established branch offices, known as Oklahoma family history centers with a wealth of research options. The centers are owned and operated by the Oklahoma LDS church and are staffed by a team of experienced volunteers that host training classes and are available to answer questions. The centers are free to the general public, but office hours vary from location to location, so call before visiting the center nearest to you.
