Can anyone help me please? I am looking on the Family Search.org site (Mormons) and I know there is a way of doing it, but I can't remember. I want to find other children of the same parents and I am following the instructions on the 'Help' facility, but not getting anywhere. Do you need to put it in batch number first - is someone able to give me the step by step way of doing this? Many thanks. Nicky

Once you have found one child with a batch number, if you enter the batch number and parents names, that should bring up any children baptised in the church with the same parents names.

PS you should be searching the IGI not all sources.

If you would like to give a name, I will walk you through it.

Thanks so much Keith - it worked first time, I knew there was a way, but couldn't quite remember.

Glad to help.

Nicky if you have one childs christening theres is a batch number starting with C, put this in with only the parents name and if there are other children with that number it brings them up, there may be other children who were christened early/later and wont be on the same batch number. Val

Thanks Valerie, I will give that a go as well.

... and an alternative is to put just father's name, father's surname and mother's forename so that you can search across more than one parish
