    @TheresaCuddumbey I was not able to open your batch, but I noticed when going to it, it had a warning that the batch was an advanced batch and to choose another batch if you would not be able to do such an advanced batch. So you may have decided to turn the batch back and pick something easier, which is totally fine to do. Thank you so much for indexing. And in the future please do as Dellory has suggested on how to share a batch more easily for you and others to be able to view the batch. You can also join the Indexing Chat group for answers and others who may be working on the same project. I'm sorry that we couldn't not assist you this time.

    Is this indexing? If so that is not a correct number for a Shared batch code, The Shared batch code looks like this. [M967-123] It is always in this format.

    Thank you Dellory Matthews. I was able to access the share batch information.

    Hi annewandering, link to batch is -

    AndLinda, thank you, I did try the intermediate projects but found them harder. I guess I found this easier as it relates to my Province that I live in and the names and places are familiar . Handwriting etc. is clear and also, its a project that I'm interested in. I just required clarity on the column that reflects father and mother details. My thinking is that I should not record their parentage (which is the colonial indenture numbers recorded alongside or below their names) as the document is specific to the birth of a child to the parents.


    Thanking you all for your input.

    Theresa
