Dr. Li was the last person to see my aunt alive. I gather she passed away of natural causes. I would like the name of the Pelham Parkway Nursing Home Director, address and phone number.

I clicked onto the batch # 7101325 and when the next page comes up I do nothing but click search. Then on the next page scroll down until you see her name. You will also see the name of her brother (perhaps). Make a note of the place of the christening....Niederellenbach. You can use this to find the film where this record is located. Go to Family HistoryLibrary Catalog and hit the place search and then type in Niederellenbach. click on Germany, Preußen, Hessen-Nassau, Niederellenbach. Then click on Germany, Preußen, Hessen-Nassau, Niederellenbach - Church records, and then click on Kirchenbuch, 1659-1875 Evangelische Kirche Oberellenbach (Kr. Rotenburg) . When you get to the next page, in the upper right hand corner click view film notes. You will then see Taufen, Heiraten, Tote, Konfirmationen 1830-1875 (Niederellenbach) FHL INTL Film 475699 .....now my bet is that if you order this film, you should find a birth record for both she and her possible brother. You said below >>>So, what you are saying is that if I get a NY death or birth certificated number from another source, I can order a photo copy of the actually certificate as long as I put the film number. <<< Yes, as long as you identify the film that the actual cert is on. also can be done for naturalization and marriage. Lastly, you write >>>There is a marriage listing for an Anne Rolston and a William Rolston on September 9, 1846, I have Batch No: M701621, Call No: 0101072, Film. Is the call no: what I need to put down? <<<< Using what I did above if a different way...go to the marriage listing and click on the call # and it brings you to Marriage records, 1845-1870, with indexes to marriages, 1845-1921, in the General Registry Office of Ireland. Again click on view film notes and there you find the specific film that this marriage is listed...FHL BRITISH Film 101241 . I do hope that this helps. Gail California

It was confusing for me the first time I did it too. The form to use for all photocopies records is 31768. Form 31831 is for IGI records. I made an educated guess about where to put the cert # and never had a problem. I used the last 2 columns for this purpose. I hope this helps. Gail

If you don't need certified copies of these records, are looking to save money, and can navigate the Family History Library Microfilm Catalog, I STRONGLY recommend that you order photocopies of these records directly from the Family History Library in Salt Lake City. The cost is $2.00 per photocopy, with a minimum $4 order, as opposed to $6.00 for certified copies from the NYC Municipal Archives if the certificate number is provided, or $15.00 from the archives if the certificate number is not known. First download and print the photocopy order form found on the library tab, education tab on the FHL website.... www.Familysearch.org the second bullet is Family History library publications. The form is called Requests for Photocopies - Census, Books, Microfilm, or Microfiche. Click on the name of the form and it will open the PDF version of the form which can be printed and filled out. Then search their library catalog for the microfilm number corresponding to the record type, borough, year and certificate number you're looking for. Complete the photocopy order form, include payment [check, money order, credit card], and mail....or fill in credit card info and FAX it. Response time is about 3-5 weeks. Photocopy quality is very good for the most part. Service is excellent. You can order copies of no more than 8 documents at a time for a total cost of $16.00. If you ordered them from the Municipal Archives [so long as you provide the certificate number] the cost would be $48.00. I've placed an order every 2 weeks. I am willing to order a copy of a record for possible relatives when the cost is only $2.00. I've filled in a number of holes in my research in the last couple of months using multiple indexes and the FHL library microfilm catalog. Gail Jorgensen California
