                                      &lt;/span&gt;&lt;table width=&quot;90%&quot; cellspacing=&quot;1&quot; cellpadding=&quot;3&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;&lt;tr&gt; 	  &lt;td&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;genmed&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;a4u2fear wrote:&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/td&gt;	&lt;/tr&gt;	&lt;tr&gt;	  &lt;td class=&quot;quote&quot;&gt;Sophia&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She is on image 271 on film 8121155, #63, Mary Koteras&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I looked through the rest of that film and she’s not in there&lt;/td&gt;	&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;postbody&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Thanks, yes, I see her there. And lucky at that, since the title of this part of the index does not acknowledge that it goes as far as 1873.&lt;br /&gt;
I do wish you luck with the other two microfilms that I mentioned above. One or the other should have her full baptism record. It's just that you'll have to go to a Family History Center to see them.&lt;br /&gt;
I was asking about the name, because I thought I might be able to show you the family on a record of inhabitants. Unfortunately, these records must only be families living in Łopienno itself, because I do not find any Koteras on the 1879-1890 list.   &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;a href=&quot;https://szukajwarchiwach.pl/92/83/0/3/116?q=%C5%81opienno+XSKANro:t&amp;amp;wynik=1&amp;amp;rpp=15&amp;amp;page=1#tabSkany&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;https://szukajwarchiwach.pl/92/83/0/3/116?q=%C5%81opienno+XSKANro:t&amp;amp;wynik=1&amp;amp;rpp=15&amp;amp;page=1#tabSkany&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The document is in German. Its title &amp;quot;Seelenliste&amp;quot; taken literally means List of Souls.&lt;br /&gt;
Best,&lt;br /&gt;

                                      Hi again,&lt;br /&gt;
Would you mind posting the image of the index in which you found your ancestor's baptism? You have not mentioned their name.&lt;br /&gt;
Thanks,&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Hi,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You are correct, that particular film does not have 1873 baptisms. However, there is a film of Łopienno (Gniezno) that should, #2062045, DGS #8121156. Here is the list of what it says it includes:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Indeks urodzeń 1893-1964 -- Indeks małżeństw 1821-1871 -- Akta urodzeń, małżeństw, zgonów (druga kopia) 1808-1832, 1837-1838, 1841-1850 -- Akta urodzeń (druga kopia) 1851-1874&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Unfortunately, this is one of the films whose images are not freely available online. You would have to view the images at a Family History Center.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If it's not there, you could look at 8121681 which also can only be viewed at a Family History Center.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Best of luck in your research,&lt;br /&gt;

                                      Here is a link to browse records from 1874-1935&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;a href=&quot;https://szukajwarchiwach.pl/53/1889/0/?q=%C5%81opienno++XSKANro:t&amp;amp;wynik=27&amp;amp;rpp=15&amp;amp;page=2#tabZespol&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;https://szukajwarchiwach.pl/53/1889/0/?q=%C5%81opienno++XSKANro:t&amp;amp;wynik=27&amp;amp;rpp=15&amp;amp;page=2#tabZespol&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I will look elsewhere to see if I can find 1873 online and post again later.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

                                      &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
                                      Hello&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I found an index to my ancestors birth in the microfilm on FamilySearch for Gacz.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In the microfilm 8121155&lt;br /&gt;
Kościół rzymsko-katolicki. Parafja Łopienno (Gniezno)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I couldn’t find the actual record of the baptism.  But when I reached out to an ancestry person for $, they were able to find the record.  It looks like it was from a microfilm.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
My question, is there another spot to find these?   The date range I’m looking for is 1873 and doesn’t fit any other microfilms for this area in FamilySearch&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
They only supply the record but do not offer microfilm numbers  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Thanks</description>
