I clicked the link to the database and entered only the last name in the search box. Presto, at the top of the list was the marriage certificate for them in Hankow! I forwarded this on to my six cousins, some of whom were also born in China. Thanks for announcing this addition. I realize that many databases contribute to only a few people, but for them, it can mean a lot As I have an aunt who was a missionary in China and was married there around 1938, I was immediately attracted by the word “China” in this post.

What I want to know is when you're going to add more Italian Civil Registrations. Those collections are really, just amazing. I know people who signed up for Ancestry.com just because of your new Caserta records (a large part of my ancestry is from that town, so I would have, too). Also, I want to know why you're wasting time keying records for Pavia and Varese?? Those will take forever to complete, and the indexes aren't needed for them. They would be helpful, but I think most people interested in those collections would rather have them now and browse the images than wait for the indexes. Interesting collection.
