Hi Nivard I've found many records in this database for an Anglo-Indian family I'm researching, the patriarch of which went to India from Sussex with the Royal Artillery. They lived in Madras. Previously I used to have to go to the India Collections at the British Library to look at the microfilmed registers. So, from this experience, I'd say that parish registers from churches in Madras, deposited in the India Collections, have been indexed and included on the site.
