Hi Paul, Sorry nothing there for John and Lucie. The records are fairly easy to search, only problem is you have to keep changing discs as each disc only covers a couple of letters of the alphabet - for example you have the first disc which covers baptisms for surnames starting with the letter A, second disc covers baptisms starting with B etc. There is not much what I would call modern stuff on them - that is late 19th century / early 20th century. It is more useful for pre 1840 information. Don´t forget to check out the coverage on - http://www.genoot(.)com/downloads/BVRI2/ - obviously not worth buying if the counties you are interested in are not covered. If you click on the blue numbers next to each county you will see what parishes are included - and the dates.
