Ive never indexed a 200 year old marriage record before. This page has 3

"Banns of marriage" dates. But no actual marriage date. how do I index this? England, circa 1812.

    Is there anything helpful in the instructions? I've indexed some sets of marriages that said do not index if it is banns.

    Please share your batch copying and pasting the batch link or batch code.

    When your batch is open, click Help, in the upper left just above the toolbar.

    On the drop-down menu, click Share Batch. You'll see those 2 options.

    There is nothing in this project that says not to index banns. The General Indexing Guidelines give us this instruction: https://prod.familysearch.psdops.com/cmsa/idx/indexing-dates

    "• If multiple dates were given for other events, type the most recent or latest date"


    Other is referring to records other than birth records.
