 == Jurisdiction  ==
-When searching for places where ones ancestors lived, you should bear in mind the jurisdiction belonging to these places and also the name of the towns and surrounding, that we can facilitate our work since the archdiocese church did not correspond to the boundaries of the states and sometimes covering several states.
+It is important to know the name of the town and the parish church where your ancestors might have attended. Most small towns only have one parish church, while larger  cities might have several. If you're searching for an ancestor who lived in a large city, begin your parish search with the church that was closest to their ancestral home. If you do not know that location and the records haven't been indexed yet, you will need to search parish by parish for the records of your ancestors.
