Regarding the church documents in possession with the Mormons are from the government source. the Mormons were not allowed to copy documents by the then director P.P.Shirodkar and he also vetoed the proposal of copying the newspapers collection in the Central Library. If I am not mistaken the Mormons copied from the archives of the church records, at Altinho.

I don't know how the matter ended, but at that time Americans were worried about the support given by the Soviet Union.

In cases where one is looking for records on specific people it is pretty good and beats having to travel to Goa just to get what you need. In my case as I wanted to build my tree backwards (to find my ancestors) and then forwards again (to find my current day relatives) I needed to see the books, locate potential records of interest, translate the key elements on the spot and log them in a notebook. Then I came back home and created the tree. This I did over 2 visits and made notes on 250 records. Somehow the Archives let the Mormons take pictures of baptisms/marriages/death records (by book page) for ever village from 1914 to around 1980. In Dec 2015 they digitized the photographs and put them online. It would be good if the same could be done for records going back. The money can easily be raised, but it needs the will in the part of the Archives.

All receipts associated with the cost of this search were emailed to me. I found the rates to be very reasonable and the response time professional. Hope this helps.

The man provides a service. In my opinion he charges a nominal fee. If he delivers you continue with the relationship. If not you move on. That is how capitalistic relationships work, isn't it? Honestly, I find this Goan penchant for conspiracy theories quite exhausting. I realise it's a sort of cultural thing. Every Goan has a conspiracy theory. They are very suspicious of everyone and everything except their politicians and homeopaths. Those they trust profoundly. This is the reason I didn't want to share the contact.

Sometimes one comes across agents who help in corrupting the system while acting as if they are offering "solutions". The land sector too is full of such types. Part of the game can be to make the official system "unworkable".
