I used to do Family History but gave up my subs years ago. Recently my niece has become interested in her fathers side of the family and I've been trying to help.
I have found this entry on findmypast
Sanders John Aubrey 1940 — 1940 Parish Baptisms Madras,Christ Church, Madras
Can anyone help please, could really do with the parent details if any
many thanks Sylvia

Hi,
On FindMyPast there are no more details on that baptism than you already have, other than father's name is Sanders ???

A note on FindMyPast advises that no images and few details are available for post 1915 births and full details are available by visiting the British Library.

Oh dear! Thanks JJ for being so quick. It's back to the drawing board again ???
Hmm BL, still difficult ...Niece in Australia and I'm in New Zealand, might have to try another way, nannyjan
thanks again Sylvia
-
Two thoughts; contact the library and enquire about a look up (you have the basic information) or a new post here asking if anyone visits the library and could do a look up for you.
Good Luck!

;D thanks nannyjan

Try Google for The Salvation Army India.
`5/81 Ritherdon Rd Vepery Chennai Tamil Nadu. India.
They do have contact details.
May know where the original Christ Church Records are held,you might be lucky. Brionne.
-
Thanks for that Brione I'll pass that on to my niece :)
-
The actual church does not have a web site looks like now part of a campus.There must be records somewhere or they would not have copies at the British Library.Hopefully something has survived.
-
I can check the BL this week or next.
