What would you suggest is my next step? Is it to contact
http://www.allsaintscathedralbathurst.com.au/ ? They have an email address. Do you still suggest snail mail?
I think I might explore my state library &/or archives first. Not only will that not put anyone out, but it might reveal more (won't be this week I don't think).
Also I have gone through your great thread again about marriage blanks. Do you have any similar ones about b, bp, d, or burials? I have gone through all my NSW certs. I'm not sure if there is any further step to take with them. I actually had a reconciled marriage one! The non-marriage ones don't have many blanks. They have things like not stated sometimes. Two of them are from asylums and may not really have had any more information. I'll also try the library/ archives for these.
