→Searching by batch numbers
Below is a list of India Office Ecclesiastical Returns Microfilm Numbers and the [[FamilySearch]]/ [[LDS ]] equivalent. I have also added known Batch Numbers for films the LDS now which have online at been indexed on the [http://www.familysearch.org Familysearch website].
== What are IGI FamilySearch Batch Numbers? == If you have ancestors with unusual names (like KUHLMEY) that no one ever spells the same way twice, then seaching the IGI searching [[FamilySearch]] by batch numbers could prove more successful that by the usual search methods, as it will list all the names on that batch. "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 [[APAC]] shelfmark.
In the past, when a set of index records was derived from the records, normally taken from Parish Registers, on a microfilm, a batch number was allocated for that set of index records. Batch numbers beginning with "C" are christenings and those beginning with "M" are marriages. The number given to the batch was just allotted by the LDS computer. It does not correspond with the [[APAC]] shelfmark.
It appears that the practice of allocating batch numbers has been discontinued for recent sets of index records, but prior sets of FamilySearch indexed records can still be searched by batch number.
