On the very first page at - https://www.familysearch.org/ one can search the library catalogue.to get:

Parish registers for St. Simon and St. Jude's Church, Granby Row, Manchester
author: Church of England. St. Simon and St. Jude's Church (Manchester, Lancashire)
and drill down for more info.


The old IGI site also has a link to the library catalog via the blue bar at top
http://www.familysearch.org/eng/search/frameset_search.asp?PAGE=igi/search_IGI.asp&clear_form=true
Searching gets the same info in the old format:

Authors Church of England. St. Simon and St. Jude's Church (Manchester, Lancashire) (Main Author)

and clicking on the "view film notes" button at top right gives:

Note Location Film
Baptisms, 1842-1906. Marriages, 1849-1906. FHL BRITISH Film 2113203

Since it's Greater Manchester, it's worth browsing the new site
https://www.familysearch.org/s/collection/list#page=1®ion=EUROPE
for the (unindexed) collection
England, Lancashire – Cheshire – Yorkshire Parish Registers, 1603-1992

Unfortunately, this register is not in the collection.

I googled the catalogue for LDS centres and their site has a part where you can put in the source film number and it tells you the church.. Just what I wanted, so thanks for your help.

Sorry had to leave computer for a while unexpectedly. Thanks Jan, I will look into that to find my local LDS Centre.

K. I got the other children today from the record office, was hoping that Charles was baptised St Andrews but it only says Manchester and he wasnt in there, also a different source film number. Thats why I was wanting to find out about that. Thanks for your help.

There are these other children born to Samuel and Charlotte on the original Family Search at St Andrews. The records on the site finish in 1875 for the church I wonder if Charles was baptised there

There might be a way, but otherwise you can visit a local LDS centre and they will get the film for you - i understand there is a modest charge.
There is a link to search for centres on the site.

I have got a baptism of charles Rogers 16thOctober 1884 in Manchester from the Family Search Pilot Site. Does anyone know is there any way I can find the church he was baptised in from the source film number. We paid a quick visit to Manchester Record Office today but they had no idea.

Any help would be appreciated, thank you
