=== Tips  ===

*Most children were baptized within a few days of birth but don’t give up after a few days as on rare occasions they might have waited several months. 
*Write down the names and residences of the godparents and witnesses. These may be relatives, friends, or important members of the community whose names may lead you to other relatives.

Before you begin Before searching for a baptism record, you must know: 

*Your ancestor’s name 
*The parish and town/city of birth or residence 
*The approximate birth date 
*The names of at least one parent Note: If there is more than one person in the parish with the same name as your ancestor, parents’ names will help you to determine which one is your ancestor.
