Hi Cheri, Most likely, they did baptize him, but the priest lost the record (or something), and when they had to find it again, it was nowhere to be found. It's easy to solve that by re-baptizing him. João Ventura http://tombp.pt/en On Monday, 21 July 2014 06:57:18 UTC+2, Cheri Mello wrote:

Suzanne, The banns are read on the parish where the bride or the groom is from. The priest usually writes who is from where. Most of the time the marriages took place at the brides village, but there are times the marriage happens on the grooms village. I have seen that before on some records

Part of batch 575 came in last week. I know that the customer service rep I talked to this morning was new, as I have never spoken with her before. But since they had to send you new vials, yours may be fast tracked. As far as I can tell from the admin pages, Family Finder and mtDNA is behind.
