Below is a list of Inmdia Office Ecclesiastical Returns Microfilm Numbers and the LDS equivalent. I have also added known Batch Numbers for films the LDS films now have online at the www.familysearch.org website.

For a list of LDS Microfilm Numbers for Church Records see:


What are IGI Batch Numbers?

If you have ancestors with unusual names (like KUHLMEY) that no one ever spells the same way twice, then seaching the IGI by batch numbers could prove more successful that by the usual search methods.

"IGI" stands for International Genealogical Index. It is an index of baptisms, marriages and burials compiled by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints from original records and microfilms. This is available to search online at their familysearch.com website.

Batch numbers beginning with "C" are christenings and those beginning with "M" are marriages. They are normally taken from Parish Registers. If there are no letters at the beginning of the batch number then they have been submitted by a LDS member and are therefore not necessarily from Parish registers. The number given to the batch is just alotted by the LDS computer. It does not correspond with the OIOC shelfmark.


Searching by batch numbers

First go to the family search website by following the link below.


[www.familysearch.org]


1) Click on the "Search" tab at the top of the screen.
2) To the left of the screen you will see a list of databases to search. Click on "International Genealogical Index".
3) Click on the drop down arrow for "Region" and select "Asia"
4) Enter the Batch Number in the "Batch Number" box.
5) Do not enter anything in any other boxes or it won't work.
6) Click "Search" and you should get a list of names and dates of events that are on that batch number and are available on microfilm at the Oriental & India Office at the British Library, as well as at any LDS Family History Centre.
