You can search the IGI in a specific area or parish using batch numbers and if you are searching for a particular surname you may well be overwhelmed with information. The IGI is not a complete record of Births Marriages and Deaths, but is a magnificant free resource. Whatever information you glean from it must be put into the picture you are trying to create and see if it progresses your search any further. If you have a specific querey then ask away and we'll try to answer. Graham
