Every month, Ancestry.com adds brand new information to its collections. It also updates existing collections. Genealogists who searched a specific collection, and did not find what they were looking for, should come back later and give it another try. The easiest way to discover what’s new is to view the Recently Added and Updated Collections list at Ancestry.com.
The default setting of the Recently Added and Updated Collections list is the United States (for United States users). You can use a menu at the top of the list to select what you want to see. Options include: All countries, Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Spain, Wales, Ireland, Italy, New Zealand, and the United Kingdom.
