Note

Question 1
Question #1: Records that were previously viewed in this collection may not currently be available online. Where can these missing records be found? Answer 1: Since all of the records were extracted from microfilms, any missing records can be located by searching the Library Catalog and viewing the relevant films at a FamilySearch center.

Question 2
Question #2: Sometimes a Batch will list the wrong location for the marriage. How can I find the correct location? Answer 2: You may find the Batch number in the table below, which consists of incorrect locations along with correct locations that have been reported. We also included the film number which you can order and view at your local FamilySearch center. Verifying the correct marriage location requires viewing the microfilm.

Question 3
Question #3: Some indexed entries have missing or incorrect information regarding the birth date, birth place, baptism/christening place, or film number. Is the missing/correct information available? Answer 3: Known specifics concerning missing or incorrect information regarding the birth date, birth place, baptism/christening place, or film number are listed below:
