1821-1910 Index (G14/2/6)
This index (G14/2/6) covers the baptism registers G14/2/1 to G14/2/7 (only 1-5 are currently online). Index entries are identified with R[egister], Fol[io] (i.e. page) and both father and child's name. The register number N corresponds with G14/2/N above.

As with most indexes of this kind, created with pen and paper, the scribe ran out of space with the result that things got out of sequence (an in this case, messy) pretty quickly. Below I have tried to put things together again, or at least tried to group links to the various index pages of each alphabet letter together. Each link, e.g. A(1,3), points to one or more pages in sequence for that letter (in this case for the letter A). The numbers in brackets after a letter, e.g. (1,3), are the register numbers that appear for that letter on the linked page(s). These register numbers are therefore a clue to the years covered on the linked page (see below for a mapping of numbers to years).

Sometimes there are a few entries of one letter mixed in with those of another letter on the same index page. In such a case that page is linked to via both letter indexes. If at first glance the letter you expect is not on the linked page (or ones immediately following it), look again carefully - it is there. Similarly, for example, not all the P's (of du Plessis, see below) are in the P column on the page, one or more might 'hide' in another letter's (for example in the C) column. There is also an inconsistency w.r.t. surnames like le Roux, de Waal, du Plessis, etc. Typically they are filed under the last word's letter (i.e. R, W and P in the example). However, for le Roux, the majority (but not all) are filed under L.

For each letter in the alphabet there is also an index of its index, listing for each surname, the index pages on which they occur, although some of those index page numbers can be a bit of a puzzle to solve and find the actual page. Links to these index of index pages are listed first for each letter below and are denoted with (?), e.g. A(?). For some surnames I have added links to their index pages in the form p46(5):1,2,4,5, meaning index entries for the surname appear, starting on page 46 for 5 pages and they refer to registers 1, 2, 4 and 5. There is no guarantee I have found all the pages, feel free to add similar for you own surnames of interest.
