Question 2
Question 2: The Event Type and Year Range (waypoint) title does not properly reflect the actual digital record content. Is there a way to determine what digital records are likely to be found within a collection? Answer 2: The following list of known waypoint discrepancies describes the event type or year range that actually exist in this collection:


 * South Africa &gt; Cape of Good Hope &gt; Cape Town, Bellville and Durbanville, All Saints &gt; Baptisms 1859-1971 have been mislabeled as Baptisms instead of Marriages. There are no Baptism records.
 * South Africa &gt; Cape of Good Hope &gt; Cape Town, St Mark &gt; Baptisms 1849-1903. The waypoint has a typographical error. The records are from 1894-1903 not 1849-1903.
 * South Africa &gt; Cape of Good Hope &gt; Kimberley, Barkly West, Klipdam and Windsorton &gt; Marriages 1894-1903. This waypoint has been mislabeled. They are baptism records not marriages.
 * South Africa &gt; Cape of Good Hope &gt; Kimberley, St. Cyprian &gt; Marriage banns 1871-1937. The waypoint name is misleading. The records start at 1910 and include records up to 1964. The records are not necessarily in chronological order.
 * South Africa &gt; Natal &gt; Natal, Mid-Illovo and Richmond, St Margaret &gt; Baptisms 1898-1953, marriages 1913-1975 also has death records for the years 1896-1985
