(digitization of FHL film 649403, first volume on film, image 215 of 373)…

  1. The christening-dates are all indexed as 1869. They should be 1669. I'm able to fix that.
  2. Many names are misindexed. That's understandable: the records are handwritten, the writing is faint in places, some scribal abbreviations and archaic spellings are used, and the names themselves are short. One thing I note in several places is that "Juº", which I believe represents "Juan", is indexed as "Julio". But I'm able to fix those problems.
  3. Juan Nicolas father of Jasinto, second entry on left-hand page, had some error in the transcription of his name and had a gender of "Other". I fixed his name and set his gender to "Male", but now his gender is listed as "Female" at the related record page. Submitted as Feedback.
  4. The fifth entry on the left-hand page, Micaela daughter of Esteban de Thago [Diego] and Juª Fran.ca [Juana Francisca], dated October 4th ("cuatro de Otubre"), is completely missing from the index. I tried to "Add", highlighting "Micaela" as a {Birth Name,Given Name} and selecting {Christening Records} as record type, but I got the error "We’re sorry, something unexpected happened, and we couldn’t show you this. Try again later." Then when I reloaded the page, the record I had just added was gone. Submitted as Feedback.

    As mentioned in many other recent and not-so-recent threads, there is a gremlin in the Editor. It doesn't work as expected. I've stopped trying to edit for the most part.
