'''Baptism'''
Since about 1600, up to 85 percent of people living in the Philippines have been members of the Roman Catholic Church.  
*Name  
 
*Gender  
Catholic Church records began to be recorded in the Philippines in 1569 with some records dating earlier.
*Age  
 
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.  
 
Catholic Church parish registers in the Philippines were created to record the church sacraments of baptism, confirmation, marriage, and burial.<br>
 
Church records are very important for family research. Civil authorities did not consistently register vital events in the Philippines until the nineteenth century. Church records, on the other hand, were well kept from 1569 (in accordance with the directives of the Council of Trent), with some records dating even earlier. They are generally an excellent source—and many times the only source—of names, dates, and places of births, marriages, and deaths.
 
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.
 
See the [[Philippines Church Records]] article for more details.

Fill in the requested information in the initial search page. This search will return a list of possible matches. Compare the information about the ancestors in the list to what you already know about your ancestors to determine if this is the correct family or person. You may need to look at several images and compare the information about the individuals listed in those images to your ancestors to make this determination. Keep in mind:
*Remember that spelling was generally not standardized until the early part of the 20th century
 
*Note the founding date of the parish you are searching. If the date is after your ancestor would be recorded, search records of the parent parish.
*There may be more than one person in the records with the same name.

*When looking for your ancestor’s baptismal record, remember that the entries are arranged chronologically.
[[pt:Filipinas, Lingayen-Dagupan, Registros Paroquiais da Arquidiocese Católica (Registros Históricos do FamilySearch)]]
*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.
 
==== Unable to Find Your Ancestor? ====
 
*Note the founding date of the parish you are searching. If the date is after your ancestor would be recorded, search records of the parent parish. See the Catholic Directory of the Philippines. If your ancestor lived before the beginning date of the church records, the older parish may be far from the new one.  
*If you cannot find records at a parish, they may have been sent to the diocese. Find the diocese in the Catholic Directory of the Philippines.
 
==== General Information About These Records  ====
 
Catholic Church records in the Philippines are generally an excellent source. They are often the only source of information about births, marriages, and deaths.
 
Parish registers consist primarily of entries for baptisms, marriages, and deaths (burials). The registers sometimes include confirmations or parish census records and the baptismal entries may include a birth date.
