How do I obtain Catholic Church Records?

Catholic Church Records Requests

If you know the name and location of your ancestors' Catholic Church/Parish, and it still exists, you can make a short but friendly request to the church office for baptism, marriage, or funeral records. Include details of your ancestor, such as: name, birthdate, marriage date, etc. If dates are unknown, try to give a close estimate of the dates. Try to request items on only one person at a time, as church offices are busy places!
