Hi Jane, Some are transcriptions from parish records that they have done themselves. Others are provided by people from their family trees. Debbie |

Once again, just a reminder that the IGI is neither complete nor 100% accurate. All information obtained from it should be either double checked with the original records or reconfirmed from another source. Maz. XX |

Best thing is to see if you can find the original parish records - if you can't get to the record office then your local LDS (Mormon) Family History Centre can order records in for you for a small fee. Have a look at the FamilySearch website and follow links from there to find out more. Good luck. Maz. XX |
