Is there a video anywhere of how to use this site?
I have tried a few times to find records but they always come up as no scans or images available. I must be doing something wrong! Thank you.

Hi Richard,
The archive holds many more records than they have been able to provide scans of on their website. For that reason, much of what one searches for may come up with "no scans available." You can, in setting your search, limit the results to only those for which scans are available. Directly below the box in which you enter your search term(s), use the option "only photos and scans."
While I am not aware of any video that shows you how to use the site, you may have already discovered that there is a tutorial there:

Perhaps you have a specific example you'd like help with?
Best of luck in your search,
Sophia

Thank you Sophia! I am looking for the death record of Simon Kuzniak born in Braczewo 1776 (I have this record). He likely died in Sycyn after the birth there of my great great grandfather Adalbertus Kuzniak in 1827. Any help greatly appreciated!(these towns are north of Szamotuly WP)

Best of luck,
