:Q: How complete are the indexes? | |||
::A: "Complete" is an interesting word. For example, all but 28 counties are included in the {{{RecordSearch|1676968|Births and Christenings Index, 1824-1940}}. The years included vary, however, for those counties which are in the index. | |||
:::Best practice: Search all available indexes. If you find the person, that index was complete enough. If you don't find the person, try a different spelling. Indexers do have difficulty reading some names. | |||
