Volunteer Lookup Request: Ontario Baptism Record (Film 1759292)

Lisa70070

Hello,

I saw that you offer genealogical lookup assistance for the FamilySearch Library in Salt Lake City, and I was hoping you might be able to help me clear up a quick brick wall regarding a locked digital film.  I went to our local family research and this particular volume was not available there. I am looking for an early Ontario baptism record that can currently only be fully accessed on-site at the main library. If you happen to be visiting the library soon, would you be open to grabbing a digital image of this record for me?Here is the citation info:

• Collection: United Church of Canada, Wesleyan Methodist Baptismal General Register
• Film Number: 1759292 (Volume 1)
• Township: Loughborough, Ontario
• Target Ancestor: William Boice, born June 1, 1817 to parents Abraham and Hannah

A quick tip for the viewer: The film often displays "Volume 2" by default, but the Volume 1 register is on this exact same digital reel—it just requires navigating back to the beginning section of the film to find the early 1800s Loughborough entries.I completely understand if you are too busy, but I would be incredibly grateful for the help!

Regards,

Lisa

@Lisa70070 The lookup service was offered by the library in Salt Lake City during the pandemic but has now been discontinued.
Those registers are not available outside of SLC, and most of the participants in this community are not in SLC.

Hi @Lisa70070.

Fortunately, it looks like that baptism image was uploaded onto William's WikiTree page. You'll have to scroll down a bit to find it.

It has his name, parents' names, birth date, baptism date and names of the sponsors. I'd recommend contacting the profile manager who uploaded that image for more information.
