Juliana, The info. that is transcribed is the same as the records on 1837online. Once they are transciribed onto FreeBMD with page and volume numbers you can figure out potential spouses. Crista

You used to have their name next to the entry, I once clicked on that and sent an e mail to one. Got an answer back to. Think it's different now.
