Hello List Marjorie, I have not heard of any researchers. I have heard, probably third or fourth hand, about an organisation called "Your Man In India" which has a document procurement service. I have not used this service, and know nothing further about the company than the website. https://www.yourmaninindia.com/ Perhaps, instead of contacting individual churches as you have mentioned below, you could try contacting the relevant Archdioceses. Of course this may not be successful either. Perhaps phone contact may be a more successful option. The FIBIS Fibiwiki page "Church Records" has links which should enable you to locate Archdioceses for the Church of North India (protestant churches for Bombay), and for the Roman Catholic Archdioceses. http://wiki.fibis.org/index.php?title=Church_records Cheers Maureen Date: Sun, 19 May 2013 12:42:55 +0100 (IST) From: MARJORIE GAHAN <[email protected]> Subject: [INDIA] BOMBAY LOOK UPS To: [email protected] Dear List - if the following message feels like deja vous - it's just me persevering in the hunt for my family's history! Can anybody give me any info regarding people on the ground doing look ups in church records in India. Bombay, and areas of Mahim, Parel,Byculla and Dadar specifically. I would be quite prepared for research fees. I have been banging my head against that brick wall, contacting individual churches by letter, and apart from diligent response from Bangalore and Mysore, received no replies. Thank you Marjorie - Ireland
