I'm in the process of redoing one of the first baptism films I did when I started my search for my ancestors in Jerez Zacatecas 12 or so years ago. When I started reading records from Mexico my Spanish was really bad and trying to read a film from 1806 was truly beyond me, I just didn't know it! 12 years later I'm finding mistakes that are terrible and have left me wondering how many records I have shared with others that are in error? The one thing it has taught me is to use other peoples records as a base to start my own search. We can't take what people like me shared with good intentions but were in error as fact until we check it ourselves. Some errors are numbers like 2 instead of 12, others are my ignorance of the given names in Mexico during that time period.
I hope others new to researching take what we share but order the films and records for themselves to double check the information.
The film 0439849 Jerez baptism has many errors in it's own and I did my best at the time but now it's time to make corrections in my research. Progress not perfection is a good rule in genealogy.
