=== Tips to Keep in Mind ===
*[[Philippines Record Finder|Record Finder]]
*Usually, marriages occurred about one year before the first child was born
*When looking for your ancestor’s baptismal record, remember that the entries are arranged chronologically
*The parish registers may list the godparents while the civil records may list the grandparents
*Be sure to search both the parish and civil records after 1860 since some families did not consistently register their children with either the church or the government.
*When looking for a person who had a common name, look at all the entries for the name before deciding which is correct
*For death records, the information in records is usually reliable, but depends upon the knowledge of the informant
*For marriage and death records, your ancestors may have used shortened names or nicknames, so pay attention to other relationships (parents, spouse, siblings, children, etc.) that can confirm whether you have the right person/record
*Continue to search the marriage records to identify children, siblings, parents, and other relatives of the bride and groom who may have married in the same county or nearby. This can help you identify other generations of your family or even the second marriage of a parent. Repeat this process for each new generation you identify
*Continue to search the indexes and records to identify children, siblings, parents, and other relatives who may have lived in the same area or a nearby area
=== General Information About These Records ===
Since about 1600, up to 85 percent of people living in the Philippines have been members of the Roman Catholic Church.
 
There was no separation of church and state in the Philippines until the end of the Spanish administration in 1898. Generally, parish priests recorded civil and ecclesiastical documents.
 
Parish registers are the best records in the Philippines to identify individuals, parents, and spouses before the nineteenth century. After this date, civil authorities began registering vital statistics, which became equally important. The information in civil sources confirms and supplements the information in church records.
