Question 1
Question 1: I get a message “This image is viewable to signed-in members of supporting organizations” for these records even when I am signed in. How can I view these records? Answer 1: FamilySearch has limited rights, granted by the record custodians, to publish some images for viewing online. Images for this collection are only available for viewing to members of the supporting organization (The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints).

Some of these images are also available on microfilm for viewing at a FamilySearch Center; for instructions, see Ordering Microfilm or Microfiche.

If you have an LDS account and are not able to view images after signing in, it may be due to a registration problem, not an image access problem. Please call 1-866-406-1830 in the United States, or contact Patron Services at [mailto:support@familysearch.org support@familysearch.org]. Please include a brief description of the problem and steps taken thus far to resolve the issue.

Question 2
Question 2: The records located at the browse path Porto &gt; Porto &gt; Porto are for other localities. What are the correct localities of these records? Answer 2: The Parishes listed at the browse path Porto &gt; Porto &gt; Porto are invalid:


 * Diocese of Porto contains church records from the Municipality of Marco de Canaveses; and includes Parish records for Varzea do Douro.
 * Hospital Real de Santo António contains baptismal and death records for the Municipality of Porto. The hospital is actually located in the parish of Miragaia, in the city and district of Porto.
 * Nossa Senhora da Assunção contains church records for the Parish of Sé and should be located at the browse path of Porto &gt; Porto &gt; Sé
 * São Martinho contains church records are for the Parish of Lordelo do Ouro. Unfortunately, there is no current browse path of Porto &gt; Porto &gt; Lordelo do Ouro.
