Ionian Island Records

I am sure I have found Consular BMD's under the heading Ionian Islands on Findmypast, but it appears to have disappeared is this correct or is it hidden some place else.

I am interested in the Ionian Island Records ....  I have been looking for birth circa 1843-45 for a Christopher Taylor, who according to his (Methodist) m.c. was born "Ionian Islands Greece" ...  I have not had any success in finding his birth/baptism at all ...

If you find those Records, would you please, if you have a spare moment, have a look to see if they include any reference to my elusive chap.  I don't have any names for his parents, so he is a brickwall at present (and err ... has been so, for a number of decades)

Many cheers,

JM in NSW Australia.

Thanks Trevor .... he's very elusive ... ended up in New Zealand ....

I think the infant in Kent in 1841 succumbed in June 1842 aged 9 months ...  :(

Hello jm
I have just got to reading my emails & I see Trevor has done a search for you.
With Trevors help I found 2 out of 3 persons I was looking for.
Hope you get there eventually

Agh Vesta.... I live in hope and anticipation, he has been a long time mystery ...  not just to me but to several others in earlier generations too ...  Not often that I see Ionian Island Records mentioned anywheres... I hoped you didn't mind me jumping onboard your thread...

Cheers,  JM

well hi to you both .
vesta . if yo care to post the name of the person your missing i,ll have a look for you as well if you wish .

and jm the same goes for you if you give me all you know on chris taylor i,ll have a scout round again , only i feel sure i found some history for the methodists some time back in helping with another post but can,t remember where , only i,m wondering if he may be registered in the non conformist records somewhere as sometimes it pays to work back from what you know .
regards to you both
