Reviewing batch MQ86-3BG, should there be separate entries for the marriages (entered at a later date) as well as for the baptisms for each individual? Thanks

Thank you for sharing your batch code! Marriage, baptism/birth, death/burial are definitely being indexed in this project.

• Index all records concerning a birth, baptism, marriage, death, or burial.

I checked the examples, and this is a Baptism form.

As with most projects, you only index the information required for the type of form. Thus, we would not index the marriage information. The researcher will find it when they see the image.

When FS wants two entries created for such a form, i.e., a marriage and a baptism, the project instructions will let you know.

This project is recording only the baptisms. Other projects will record the marriages, confirmations, etc.
