  • where to find baptism records

    hi,

    are there dedicated sites to baptism records or is it just via main websites like ancestry and fmp?

      Am sure you've forgotten to add familysearch to your list. It is sometimes worth internet searching the parish because sometimes someone may just have transcribed some of the records. I used to find a lot of Suffolk records this way a long time ago but they appear to have disappeared. But have been lucky with a few Kent parishes although they do appear to be early dates.

        search each area you are interested in with "OPC" in search criteria.

          Also note that sometimes on FamilySearch they have the film of parish records online but not indexed nor transcribed. You can find them by going to catalog, search by place - that will give you the records associated with the place. Under Church Records (I think), individual grouping will be listed. If the parish & time frame that you want is listed, click. If there is a camera with no key above it, the film is available online.
          Sorry if I have some details wrong...
