These recordings were aN INDEX!!??! (?). WOW- never would have guessed. I wondered what happened, and contemplated and re read the pages several times over a couple of days before posting.
I didn't notice it was at the back of the book but I'll look again. Margaret, you're saying I may have to find the Baptisms years earlier. I will search. The good thing is we do know is that they existed. I will enter them for children of the couple without a date. (For now) Thanks for enlightening me!
