HI Linda,

If no one offers to do your look up you could look to see if there is an LDS
church near to whre you are in Spain, I use the Barcelona centre for my
research which is a good 1.5hrs away from me by road. If you find there is
a centre reasonably close to you then you could always order the films of
the PRs that interest you and look these things up yourself. YOu may find
more on the film that you thought you would. I have been using the LDS in
Barca for about 4 years now and find it very useful.

You can search on the familysearch site for the addresses of the centres in
Spain and then you can search the Family History Library Catalogue of films
to see what they have for your places of interst. I just made a Place
Search for Chappel Essex and found that there are the BTs and the PRs for a
long span of years for this parish. The films cost 6euros to hire for a
month, though at Barcelona the films come in on an indefinite loan so they
stay there for evermore.

Hope this helps.
