Bishop's transcripts for St. Olave's Church, Southwark, 1801-1864

I am trying to access the burials for this church in 1810. I have visited a FamilySearch Affiliate library to access these records.

Christenings, marriages, and burials, 1801-1819.

The film attached to this catalog entry is for Nunhead Cemetery, Camberwell from 1870 onwards (citation below).

Can the correct film please be attached.

I am not connected with FamilySearch

Perhaps you could try reporting this error using the feedback tab on the microfilm catalogue page

The URL I got from the catalogue page was https://www.familysearch.org/en/search/film/007567869?cat=93611&i=0 which is different to the one you quoted which opened to a page where there was no film number shown, not sure where this came from.

I'm at my affiliate library this afternoon and can access that DGS without any problem.

We can't attach restricted images here in the Community. If you can tell me what you hope to find, I'll be glad to try to help.

I would have loved to report it from the feedback tab, but the library has popups blocked and so the feedback button wouldn't work.

Thank you for your offer.

I'm trying to get an original entry for the attached burial in 1810. The surname has been transcribed as Kalijohns, but I believe it should be Rabjohns (and I can see how the letters have been mistranscribed).

I will probably go one day later this week.

I was at my FSC yesterday trying to locate that record for you.

According to the index, that 1810 baptism should be at Image 272. DGS 7567869 only has 184 images, including title and end cards. And, as you noted, DGS 7567869 covers 1870-71 from a different parish.
I spot-checked the other DGS in the collection, and they seem to contain the years specified in the respective titles. I had hoped that I might find 1810 on one of the other DGS.
I submitted Feedback on the DGS on FamilySearch, commenting that the title is incorrect and asking for it to be corrected.

FS has another record set covering St Olave's, but those are only accessible in Salt Lake City.

FMP only has a transcript/extract of the burial, not an image. There it is Rabjohns, but impossible to confirm without an image.

I checked The National Archives of the UK, which referred me to The London Archives.

The Research Guide there refers the user to Ancestry. https://search.lma.gov.uk/LMA_DOC/P71_OLA.PDF

For help in finding the record, I reached out to @Adrian Bruce1 who had success in locating the image.

This link will allow you to see it on Ancestry, even without a subscription. If, for some reason, that doesn't work for you, let me know, and I can send you a copy by private message since we can't attach images here.

Hope this helps!
