=== Indexes to Church Records  ===

There are two excellent indexes to church records. The ''Thomas D. Mutch Index'' ( http://www.mutches.com/list_index.php) is a card index of birth, marriage, and death entries compiled from parish registers. Though it covers later time periods, it is most effective for the pre-1830 time frame. The ''Kerrison James Index'' covers pre-1830 christenings, marriages, and burials copied from English church records.
 
For several years, various states have worked to produce ''Pioneer Indexes'', which include some parish registers in addition to civil registration records. To learn more about these indexes, see [[Australia Civil Registration- Vital Records|Australia Civil Registration]].
 
To find indexes that are available at the Family History Library, look in the Place Search of the FamilySearch Catalog under:
