Dear members,I have accessed the Goa Archoves for some Birth records from
Bicholim area. The office is at Direcotrate of Archives and Archeology at
Patto. They have digitized all Birth and death old records from 1901-1952 when
I had last checked and were in the process of moving further.Shri Balaji Shenoy
the young but amazing head archivist was very helpful in pulling out some old
birth records that I needed. His number is 9049049998.Hope this
helps.regardsNirmal

For some reason there have been stories floating around for years that the
Bishop’s Palace had copies of baptismal records.
They aren’t any there. I had asked then Archbishop Felipe Neri in person in
2016 when I was doing my research in Goa whether they had any such records and
he said that they had been required to pass everything to the National Archives.
I’ve done extensive work on my village of Moira at the Archives and they had
baptisms/deaths/marriage records from 1804 onwards. Other villages could go
further back.

Subject: Re: [GRN] Query re Goa Archives
Baptism certificates: If they're not at the church(es) where the baptisms
occurred, the next port of call should be the archives at the Bishop's Palace
Altinho. Far higher chance there than the archives.
For birth certificates, I think it might depend on the taluka. If Tiswadi, then
the archives of Births and deaths at Junta House Panjim (unless they've moved
to Patto or elsewhere), and only if not there (if going very far back in time),
then the archives.
I'm not sure about the other talukas.
Hope this helps

Selma, you should call the village church right away; the vicar will be able to
tell you where the baptismal records are now being kept. At the local church
itself, or at an archive in Old Goa?
Regards,
Victor

Dear members,
I shall be in Goa shortly hoping to access the Goa archives for two or three
birth/baptismal recordings. I have never been to the Goa archives. There is
nothing on their website which indicates what the process might be for a day
pass/identification required, document handling and document ordering nor a
search engine to do such ordering. I was wondering if anyone has had an
experience and would be able to guide me.
Many thanks,
Selma
