→Ecclesiastical records (‘N’ Series in the India Office Records): rem apac
'''Main article: [[Church records]]'''
The [[East India Company]] established and paid for Anglican dioceses and parishes in all areas as they came under its control. Each parish priest was required to establish registers in which to record BMDs. In addition, he had to send duplicates to the presidency ecclesiastical authorities. The latter have been collated and sent to London and are now in the care of the [[India Office Records]] at the [[British Library]] in their Asia, Pacific Asian & Africa Collections African Studies Reading Room ([[APAC]]).
Microfilmed copies of all the records are available for public inspection and indexes are available on the open shelves of the APAC, broken down by Presidency, alphabetically and by year.
The N series contains Anglican and some Catholic and Non-Conformist records.
