Description of the Records

 * Records are handwritten and may be difficult to read
 * This project has three main types of records: Births and Baptisms, Banns and Marriages, and Deaths and Burials
 * It will require careful scrutiny of the records to determine the type because there are many different formats. There are paragraph formats and table formats.
 * Columns, when they exist, do not always have headings to define the contents
 * The order of information for the fields to be indexed varies from record to record
