Title: Mary Ann White, bapt:1814, Bristol: Which Church?
Post by: JohnG_Swansea on Monday 05 August 19 20:53 BST (UK)
Hello Researchers

I have found the details, on both Ancestry & FamilySearch, for the baptism of a Mary Ann White on the 9 February 1814 at an unknown Church in Bristol.  The parents are correctly identified, but at which Church did the baptism take place?

According to the details on Ancestry, details of the baptism are to be found on FHL Film: 1596678.

I have tried on several occasions to access FHL films, but always without success.

It would be exceedingly helpful is someone with the require skills could access the above film and identify the church involved.

Thank you, JohnG_Swansea.

Pauline,

Thank you for providing a path to the required information.

I've now studied the outcome/results page and I think I can now see where my previous search path's have gone wrong

I shall now retry some of my previous searches to see if the outcomes produce any better results.
 
Many thanks again, JohnG_Swansea.

That's good to know.
Familysearch isn'nt always the clearest when describing which church it is.

Godd luck, and happy hunting.

Pauline
