Known Issues
Question #1: When searching for images from Blascomillán, San Millán I receive the message “Images Not Available”. Is it possible to view any of these images? Answer #1: These images are not available for viewing. Whenever possible, FamilySearch makes images available for all users. However, ultimate rights to view images on our website are granted by the record custodians. Spain privacy rules prohibit viewing the following records: All birth, marriage and death images must be 100 years or older. If any record on a digital folder contains birth, marriage or death records from the last 100 years, for example, the entire digital folder is restricted. The Historical Records collections will be updated each year to show new unrestricted records. FamilySearch respects and strives to adhere to all privacy laws respective to preserving and providing access to genealogical records in its collection.

Question #2: When searching the baptismal (Bautismos) records for Blascosancho, San Boal Mártir I receive the message “Images Not Available”. How can I see these images? Answer #2: When these images were filmed, many records from different time periods were filmed and placed on the same roll of microfilm. Because of the 100 year privacy laws of Spain if any of the images on the film falls within the last 100 years, none of the images can be displayed.
