Starting in 1973, FamilySearch created a major index called the [[International Genealogical Index|IGI]] (IGI). It contained both indexed/extracted church register name entries as well as user submitted records (the forerunner to online family trees).  
Starting in 1973, FamilySearch created a major index called the [[International Genealogical Index|IGI]] (International Genealogical Index). It contained both indexed/extracted church register name entries as well as user submitted records (the forerunner to the FamilySearch's Family Tree).  


The records that were extracted from original source documents were only ever a small fraction of all existing records. No original images are included. The records are arranged in batches and sometimes it is useful to know what batches correspond to a particular place. [http://www.archersoftware.co.uk/igi/ Archersoftware], while a few years out of date, provides batch information for the entire British Isles. Many, sometimes even a majority of records, were indexed for Bedfordshire, Berkshire, ... (cull list to 5-10 counties). There are still millions of records for the other counties, and every single county is included.
