G'day Carole The Batch No. starting with the 69 means that it was submitted in 1969 by an LDS Member. This Batch and others starting with two digits instead of a letter do not refer to records extracted from a Parish Register which is why the batch does not show up on the Hugh Wallis site. The person who submitted the data may not have obtained it from an OPR etc, but from other sources such as a family bible etc. The Non-Conformist OPR have been indexed are available on < http://www.bmdregisters.co.uk/ >. This is a pay per view site with a basic free index. However with a bit of detective work the index can provide you with enough information to then locate the LDS microfilm of the record which you can order into your local LDS Library.

When searching the Hugh Wallis batch numbers for Madeley this marriage doesn't show up, nor does it show up on a search on the new Family Search website. I can only think that this is a non conformist marriage. How do I go about finding out exactly where this marriage took place? Obviously the records have survived otherwise the entry in the IGI would not be possible. I would like to be able to verify that the information on the IGI is correct. Any assistance much appreciated. Thanks, Carole

Hi Doug Thanks for the info - I'll check out the bmdregisters site and see what I can find.
