Title: Lost link to Chapel of Dulwich College baptisms
Post by: Copper1 on Monday 07 November 22 13:08 GMT (UK)

Can anyone help please? I was there earlier this year.. Printed some off early 1800's but can't get back to it. Suspect it was Ancestry but can't deal with their 'search for' system. Many thanks.

From Ancestry’s dropdown Search menu …
Select Card Catalogue and enter the database title

London, England, Church of England Births and Baptisms, 1813-1923

Using the Search Form, enter the required details. You can narrow down the results by entering Dulwich College in the Keyword box on the Search Form.

ADDED
If you want to browse through the register instead of searching it, go the above database and to the panel Browse this Collection.
Select Borough - Southwark, and Parish - Dulwich College Chapel

Excellent thank you Bookbox. Now I will save that data.

Have Ancestry removed the Dulwich College baptisms from their records now?  I can't find them, even following the instructions above.

Dulwich College Chapel doesn't appear as a parish under Southwark or Lambeth boroughs for me, and searching the whole collection with just Dulwich College under keyword returns nothing.

Thanks! 

I must have been looking at a different record for some barmy reason.

Unfortunately, I'm looking for an 1804 baptism*, which appears to be outside of what Ancestry hold.


* Joseph Thorback s.o. Wm & Eliz bapt 1804 Dulwich College Chapel according to the Pallots Index.

Ah!
 but in records prior to 1813 (a different data set ) there is nothing for Dulwich.
sorry

Whilst I'm not currently, on Ancestry I do recall they messed things up originally. The 'batch' referred to as "xxxx-1838"? has a swathe of dates you wouldn't expect to be in there. So look at all dates anyway. They just don't care ::)
