Member Since: October 2003 Posts: 0 Send Message	Hiya You have two options :- Option 1 - Go to a LDS church (theyre listed on the family search site) you can search for the closest one to you and order the microfilm of the parish records you want - the microfilm takes about 2 weeks to arrive and you then have the use of it for about 3 months. Option 2 - Go to the records office that is in the county where the entry is, records office only have parish records for their own county ie Hampshire will only have records for Hampshire. Hope this makes sense. Karen

Member Since: July 2004 Posts: 0 Send Message	Hi, I have found some records on the Family Search website, headed IGI Individual Record, can anyone tell me how I now confirm these are the people I am researching, do I visit the Church of Latter Day Saints or contact or visit the Records Office for Hampshire? Will I find out anymore information as well as what the IGI record shows. I am researching JOHN VENTHAM born C1786 died 26/11/1842 at Brockhampton, Havant. Many thanks for any replies. Regards Rita
