From Hugh Wallis; Aldenham C012182 1813-1847 E012181 C012184 1813-1895 E072031 C072031 1559-1812 M012181 1559-1659 1666-1837 P012181 1559-1812 M012184 1813-1837 M072031 1560-1812 Looks as though all the christenings are on Familysearch.

Hi NatSav In the info you provided you said that it appears all the christenings are on Family Search and there are a series of letters and numbers - can I ask what they mean? Kind regards Bob
|
The IGI searches 2 kinds of records - user contributed, often by Mormon members (these are of variable quality), and extracted.
The #s are batch #s, and entering one will restrict the search to extracted records - typically from one register - e.g., here a Baptismal register from Aldenham covering 1559-1812, say. The m's are marr registers - the e's are miscellaneous (but mostly marrs). Sometimes they're not old parish registers, but bishop's transcripts (the church's back-up copy). Click on the source # and drill down and you'll see what they are and where they were gotten.

Hi mgnv Many thanks for your help but I don't follow/understand about the searches and batches etc? Can you give me an example I can follow on Family Search? Kind regards Bob

Start at http://www.familysearch.org/eng/default.asp Note you can find a nearby FHC in the centre column if you ever wanted to rent a film. In the menu bar - Search Records - Advanced Search (Record Search Pilot & Library Catalog are also useful). Then pick the IGI in the left margin, and start searching.
