South African Birth/Baptismal Records.

Some of the records only give:

1. Name
2. Date
3. Plex (Parish)

Is the date listed the baptismal date or the birth date?

Thanks

Check out the first example in the Project Instructions "How to Index a Baptism Register". You can bring the Project Instructions up anytime by clicking on the last icon in the horizontal toolbar. The date is indexed as a baptismal date.
