Some registers have been published by the Catholic Record Society. The {{FHL|415522|title-id|disp=Family History Library}} has most of these published registers, and depending on the area, may&nbsp;have microfilms&nbsp;of some&nbsp;Catholic parish registers. Currently, unlike in Scotland, and most other church registers of the United Kingdom,&nbsp;the vast genealogical&nbsp;treasures of the&nbsp;Roman Catholic parish&nbsp;registers&nbsp;have mostly never been centrally located--at least&nbsp;on a national basis, for preservation and security, nor microfilming/imaging purposes.
