What has happened to some of the old English C and M batch chr/mar records that were in the old IGI?
I am getting "not found" when I put in some old C and M batch numbers AND the data is COMPLETELY missing for those parishes now in the online FamilySearch - not in the regular search and not in the "Indexed International Genealogical Index (IGI)" search results. I have had this happen over the past month for a couple of parishes where the record transcriptions are simply gone!
Example: I have an old IGI printout (fiche page copy, actually) from the 1992 IGI containing entries for Mission, Nottinghamshire parish, batches C060491 and M060491 that do not show up. In fact, NO entries turn up for Mission, Nottinghamshire at all.
Old examples I KNOW were there originally:
Batch M060491 marriage of Wm. Nettelship and Eliz. Hollery, mar 27 Oct 1772 at Mission (on the Nottinghamshire IGI fiche page 13,544)
Batch C060491 chr for Thos. Netelship, son of William Netelship/Elizabeth bapt 29 Jan 1775 (on the Nottinghamshire IGI fiche page 13,541)
Another parish with no transcribed records turning up, which used to be in the IGI, are for Bole, Nottinghamshire - old batches I show in my 199x Nettleship IGI prints were: C046351, A537925, and M046351.
Are these wonderful transcribed records gone? If not, how do I find them? I have had this problem more than once in the last few months, but, sorry, I didn't record which parishes were missing.
Thanks for any advice - maybe I am searching in the wrong place? https://www.familysearch.org/search/collection/igi
