'''Note: Microfilm ordering services ceases 31 August 2017. Microfilms are expected to be digitized, and available online, by 2020. Please take this into account when reading the information below.''' This is not an official page of the LDS church. For information on how to use these microfilms to find your ancestors, please refer to the webpage on [[Using_LDS_Microfilms | Using OIOC Church Records on Microfilm ~~on the Family History in India website~~]]. This page is a list of the microfilms available for the parish register transcripts of Protestant and Catholic churches in the Presidency of [[Bengal]], 1713-1948. They were filmed by the [[LDS ]] (Mormon) genealogical society and are available for viewing by all persons. The original records are at part of the [[Asia, Pacific & Africa Collection]], operating out of the ~~OIOC or Oriental and India Office Collections~~Asian & African Studies Reading Room, now part of the [[British Library ]] in London.

There are also pages available for the Presidencies of [[Madras]] and [[Bombay]].

The Presidency of [[Bengal]] mainly included the modern-day states of [[West Bengal]] (including [[Calcutta]]), [[Bihar]] and [[Orissa]]. At times the Presidency extended to [[Punjab ]] and most of Northern India, extending west to parts of what is now [[Pakistan]], including [[Lahore]], [[Multan]], [[Peshawar]] and [[Rawalpindi]]. It includes returns from the British colonies of [[Burma]], [[Malacca]] and [[Singapore]].

Indexes are arranged alphabetically within each year. The numbers in the middle column below refer to the years covered by the microfilm. The numbers in the right-hand column are the microfilm numbers.
