    If you look at our Research Wiki

    https://www.familysearch.org/help/helpcenter/article/how-do-i-search-the-familysearch-research-wiki

    You can find India Online Genealogy records. It shows which records that there is and if there is an index. Hope this helps.

    @JWarren89, I assume that you are referring to Goa, India. There is one indexed Collection for Goa, it is India, Archdiocese of Goa, Roman Catholic Priesthood Candidates, 1724-1996 and can be viewed by clicking HERE. A description of this Collection is found in the FamilySearch Research Wiki - India, Archdiocese of Goa, Roman Catholic Priesthood Candidates - FamilySearch Historical Records, and can be viewed by clicking HERE.

    Although not indexed, and just as a reminder; there are additional Goa church records that can be found in the FamilySearch Catalog and can be viewed by clicking HERE.

    I hope this helps.

    There are a large number of microfilms of church registers from Goa which have not been indexed.

    The FamilySearch microfilm numbers are set out on the FIBIS Fibiwiki page Goa Church Records

    I am not a FamilySearch employee or missionary, but in my view, it will be a very long time before these records are indexed. Probably not until technology improves such that handwritten records can be transcribed by computer

    @JWarren89, unfortunately we do not have any insight into when various record are to be indexed. I suspect that @MaureenE123's response is likely true.
