FamilySearch Indexing (Beaver County Sheriff)

To Whom It May Concern:

Pursuant to the Government Records Access and Management Act, I hereby request the following records:

Policies, procedures and/or documents pertaining to indexing for FamilySearch, otherwise known as Intellectual Reserve, Inc., a genealogical non-profit operated by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS), by inmates within facilities run by the Beaver County Sheriff. This includes any documents regarding Family History Centers operated within such facilities, and any documents referencing the LDS division named LDS Correctional Services, or the new LDS division named FamilySearch Correctional Facility Services.

The requested documents will be made available to the general public, and this request is not being made for commercial purposes.

In the event that there are fees, I would be grateful if you would inform me of the total charges in advance of fulfilling my request. I would prefer the request filled electronically, by e-mail attachment if available or CD-ROM if not.

Thank you in advance for your anticipated cooperation in this matter. I look forward to receiving your response to this request within 10 business days, as the statute requires.

Sincerely,

Burkely Hermann

McKensie Barney,
So if I understand you correctly, there is a LDS volunteer program at your facility/facilities but you do not have records of that program. Is that correct?

I look forward to hearing from you.

Best regards,
Burkely Hermann

McKensie Barney,
Thanks for the clarification and for your responses to this public information request. If I have any further inquiries, I will let you know.

Best regards,
Burkely Hermann
