Abstract:
From 1999 to 2019, IPUMS collaborated with genealogical organizations to develop massive individual-level census datasets spanning the 1790 through 1940 period, and we are currently working on the 1950 census. This research note describes how our genealogical collaborations came about. We focus on our collaborations with the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints Family and Church History Department (later known as FamilySearch) and the private genealogical companies HeritageQuest and Ancestry.com.

Abstract:
Genealogical research is full of opportunities for connecting generations. Millions of people pursue that purpose as they put together family trees that span hundreds of years. These data are valuable in linking people to the people of their past and in developing personal identities, and they can also be used in other ways. The purposes of this paper are to first give a short history of the development and practice of family history and genealogical research in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, which has developed the FamilySearch website, and second, to show how genealogical data can illustrate forward generation migration flows across the United States by analyzing resulting patterns and statistics. For example, descendants of people born in several large cities exhibited distinct geographies of migration away from the cities of their forebears.

Abstract:
Randomly selected undergraduates at Brigham Young University, Brigham Young University-Idaho, and Brigham Young University-Hawaii, all private universities sponsored by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, participated in a study that investigated four questions regarding federated searching: (1) Does it save time? (2) Do undergraduates prefer it? (3) Are undergraduates satisfied with the results they get from it? (4) Does it yield higher-quality results than nonfederated searching? Federated searching was, on average, 11 percent faster than nonfederated searching. Undergraduates rated their satisfaction with the citations gathered by federated searching 17 percent higher than their satisfaction using nonfederated search methods. A majority of undergraduates, 70 percent, preferred federated searching to the alternative. This study could not ultimately determine which of the two search methods yielded higher citation quality. The study does shed light on assumptions about federated searching and will interest librarians in different types of academic institutions, given the diversity of the three institutions studied.

Abstract:
Genealogy is one of the most popular sociocultural pursuits in modern U.S. history. During recent decades, scholars of the history of American genealogy and family history have forwarded an argument that its development since the 19th century is characterized by “democratization”. Surveying the scholarship, this article critically examines what that argument really means, what it unveils about historical change, and what it does not adequately recognize. The article argues that “democratization” is inadequate for making precise explanations about historical causes, causalities, and consequences. As an alternative to the democratization argument, it is suggested that research on the history of American genealogy should be inspired by recent studies of contemporary genealogy by sociologists, anthropologists, and cultural geographers, as well as by philosophical studies on the human longing for ancestry. By doing so, it becomes possible to engage with the crucial question of power in the historical inquiry. This approach is explored through the genealogical work of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Rather than looking at genealogy through the lens of grassroots individuals, we need to acknowledge the connection between personal longing for ancestry and the ways in which powerful organizations, institutions, media, and businesses have sought to capitalize on this longing.

Abstract:
This chapter delivers a history of Mormon genealogy, featuring Mormonism’s explicit linking of genealogical research with worship, and living people’s evangelization of the dead. From the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints’ earliest days in the 1820s, founding prophet Joseph Smith inaugurated the Church’s baptism for the dead and overall outreach to the dead, who were considered crucial to save even when they had lived and died too early to convert to Mormonism. Over time, the Church’s renunciation of polygamy (plural wives) in the 1890s resulted in fostering genealogical institutions and emphasizing one’s family dead. Susa Young Gates’s lessons in genealogy for other women (1912) began the popularization of genealogy throughout the Church. But genealogy became important enough to the Church that it placed genealogy instruction in the hands of men and emphasized reaching male audiences. Although Mormons repudiated discriminating among the dead on the grounds of religion, class, or success, Mormon genealogical practices nonetheless entertained racial beliefs as well as gender distinctions that were shared by non-Mormon American whites at the time.

Abstract:
This chapter examines Bautista’s U.S. residency (1910 to 1922) and its influence on his spiritual trajectory. It argues that during his first twelve years in the United States, Bautista experienced a decade of unprecedented personal growth and opportunity, which probably led him to expect a lifetime of increasing responsibility as a Mexican member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Bautista crossed the border a month before the Mexican Revolution began. He settled first in Mesa, Arizona, but moved to Utah in 1913 where he helped found the first Spanish-speaking branch of the Mormon Church in Salt Lake City. Though initially a gardener on Temple Square, Bautista became president of his congregation and the Lamanite Genealogical Society, mastered temple rituals and Mormon doctrine, published an article, and spoke to audiences about his experiences as a Mexican Mormon.

Abstract:
Bautista’s life provides a Mormon chapter to the history of conflict over leadership between Euro-American missionary movements and their indigenous converts. Insistence on indigenous ecclesiastical authority and the practice of polygamy cost Bautista his membership in the Mormon Church and nearly every personal relationship. Nevertheless, Bautista never bowed to the pressure of Euro-American religious authority. His contributions include: congregation building in Central Mexico, the Mormon Colonies, Arizona, and Salt Lake City; teaching genealogical research methods to Mexicans from 1922 to 1924; his leadership role in the schismatic movement known as the Third Convention (1936); his authorship of the largest indigenous Mormon theological work to date; his decades of diaries; and the nearly seventy-year survival of his utopian community. His continuing relevance is underscored by the fact that increasing conversions among Latin Americans points to an indigenous majority in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in the near future.
