Hello
I am wanting to request an LDS film, and have not used these before, I am wanting to search Beaconsfield parish records , firstly, are the names that show up on the IGI search, ALL of the records on a particular film ? or are these results ONLY records that have been added by other researchers ? In other words, are there records on the films that don't show in the online search ? Hope that's not too confusing ???

If you go into your nearest LDS centre they will help you order the right film. The films generally show the full BMD registers so you get the advantage of the burials and any extra comments the vicar might have made on the other entries. The IGI records temple sealings for members. The films are of the church registers, regardless of LDS members. I am sure someone can put that more succinctly and also tell you more about finding the right film.

According to the Hugh Wallis site there are two films depending on the time frame.
There are also two non conformists films. The LDS centre will advise you as already stated.
Beaconsfield
C041681 1631-1837 E041681
C041682 1838-1877 M041681 1575-1837
M041682 1838-1878
(Bethesda Chapel
Aylesbury Street
Independent) C089031 1813-1837
(Old Meeting House
Independent) C089021 1765-1837
But according to the Bucks Records office there is also a film for the Congregational church in Beaconsfield 1813 onwards which does not appear to be transcribed by the IGI.
