Trying to find the birthdate of Richard Bullivant, born c.1855 in Leicestershire. He was a bank clerk in Essex by 1901. He was my great-great-grandfather.

Extracted birth or christening record for the locality listed in the record. The source records are usually arranged chronologically by the birth or christening date.

go to www.familysearch.org. Click on Advance Search, scroll down to International Genealogical Index. Fill in boxes.


BE WARNED ....... make sure that any information that you find is "EXTRACTED record" (scroll down to the bottom of the screen to see this). The information has been extracted from the actual record.


If it says "SUBMITTED record" be very very careful with it. Do not accept it as the truth until you have 2 or 3 other confirmatory pieces of evidence (ie, documents). A submitted report has been submitted to the site, usually by a member of the church, and cannot be trusted, as they give no sources, and often seem to be guesswork.
