Hi again A follow up on my previous posts I don't know if you are aware of familysearch which is where the events I posted come from The International Genealogical Index (more usually known as the IGI) is as its name suggests an index of baptisms and marriages in the main compiled by the Mormon Church There are two major elements to the IGI, firstly submissions by Patrons of the Church of the Latter Day Saints these may be based on fact but may be based on assumptions or calculations so by their very nature need careful consideration and much more research before being accepted The other element is from extractions from Parish Registers, these are more reliable but still need confirming with the originals, not least because there may well be more details on the original not captured in the transcription In the case of your events the originals can be consulted online at scotlandspeople, a pay per view site http://www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk/ As Anne rightly says you should consult the original to check the transcription is accurate and also to see if there are any other details, such as residence But be aware that records for the period are generally sparse in detail so any clues are vital Nivard Ovington in Cornwall (UK) > Marriage > WILLIAM SYMON Spouse: CATHARINE WOOD Marriage: 09 SEP 1804 Montrose, Angus, Scotland > M113122 1633 0102662 Film 6903014 Film M113122 1658 - 1819 0102662 Film 6903014 Film > > Nivard Ovington in Cornwall (UK)
