    3. Hi Ed   Where would we be without the LDS site!   We all appreciate the dedication and long hours volunteers put in.  However may I gently point out that in most instances there are no page/folio numbers or else it would have been provided.  The item below is an exact presentation of the LDS record.    Unfortunately this will continue to be an ongoing issue for these good people.   Regards Indi     Name                             Victoria Niderham Burial date                     29 May 1894 Burial place                    Calcutta, Bengal, India Death date                     29 May 1894 Age                                   52 Birth date                       1 842 Marital status                Widowed Spouse's name              Joseph Niderham Indexing batch no.        B39358-5 Film                                 512350     Ed Keen said > Hello List, ...They said many people are not putting all of the information in their requests that is available on the FamilySearch.org indexes. They said the biggest items missing are volume and/or?page numbers.  When there is no page numbers they then need to go through the film until they find the record and then go to a scanner.  This can be very time consuming for the volunteers unless the record happens to be near the beginning of the film. I hope this gives everyone a better perspective on what is going on behind the scenes and how dedicated all of these LDS?volunteers are in fulfilling your requests...
