=== Locating the parish to search the Church Records === | |||
To do effective research in church records, you must determine the parish that your ancestor's farm or village belonged to. To do so, see the postal guide listed in the "Gazetteers" section. | |||
Parish boundary maps can help you determine which parish church records to search. They can also help you identify neighboring parishes if you need to search more than one parish in a region. | |||
For more information, see the "Maps" section. | |||
