Re: Anomaly in FMP indexing
Jonwarrn, With the microfiche symbol, I perhaps wrongly assumed they were no longer viewable on line, because the camera symbol had disappeared. I’ll try again :D EDIT Weird, I followed your link, signed in and the camera symbol was back, I can’t explain it, but thanks for the link Something really...

Re: Anomaly in FMP indexing
Adrian,
The digital images for St Elphin’s used to be freely available to view and download on Familysearch via their catalog search. Sadly, fs must have ‘sold’ the images, because they are no longer available on-line, only at Family History centres

Anomaly in FMP indexing
Searching for a baptism on FMP in Warrington, I restricted the search to Lancashire, and all that came up was a transcription for the person concerned. Changing the restriction to Cheshire however, brought up the same christening, in the same church as before, but also with an associated image! I kn...

Even so, 105 baptisms is a bit much. I'd have thought the water in the font would be getting a bit thick!

Number of Christenings on same day
I saw this today, and wondered if it was a record: On 17th June 1886, in Christ Church, Southwark, the vicar baptised 105 children in one day. They wouldn’t have had the usual baptism, because even if the vicar was on duty for 8 hours, it only allowed around 4 minutes per Baptism, so he must have se...

Possibly, but horses for courses. By using fhug, you are aiming the question at lots of people who use FH. This forum, not so many

Re: Brickwall Thoughts
Slightly off topic I know, but tracing missing censuses for someone? Look for their children, as older parents are often with a married child. Found quite a few that way over the past few weeks. It just goes to show that recording children often pays off, even if on a very distant branch of your tre...
