Andrew Dunn Baptism 1761 Northumberland Non-Conformist Record
« on: Friday 25 March 22 02:10 GMT (UK) »
Hello,
I hoping that someone can assist me in finding an image of a baptism record for Andrew Dunn born or baptised on 23 March 1761, his father was recorded as being Thomas.
I found a record on Family Search that states that this record in available in their dataset 'Northumberland Non-Conformist Church records 1613-1920'. Apparently the image should be available at a family history centre, partner site or the legal custodian.  I have checked at a local Family Search Partner site with out any luck and was told there that sometimes not all records are available at a Partner site. I imagine that the 'legal custodian' is the Northumberland Archives but I live in Australia and cannot visit myself.
I would like to find the actual parish that recorded this baptism and, if possible, any other details recorded about Andrew's father or where the family were living at that time.
Thank you for your assistance.
Michael

Andrew Dunn, 1761
https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:6CTC-7B9V

DGS number 004024621. That's LDS microfilm 2193528
https://www.familysearch.org/search/catalog/results?count=20&query=%2Bfilm_number%3A004024621

Image 654.

From what's on that microfilm, it looks like your record may be from Harbottle Presbyterian Church.
Included are Baptisms, 1737-1805.

Thank you jonw65. Looks like I will need to go back to my local society and logon to Family Search site and check this particular film. Can you help me understand how I would know that it is image 654 from the basic information that I had which came from the first link you attached below. Just for future cases. Thank you

Hi
You have to click on Document Information.
Which gives you what they now call a Digital Folder Number (or DGS number)
Pop that into their catalogue search, Film/Fiche/Image Group Number, to see what items/places are on the film
https://www.familysearch.org/search/catalog

There are four sets of records, but when you click on each one you see they include other films which also have records for them, so you just have to be careful you are checking what is on the film you are interested in.
Jon
