Thanks Karen,
I'll check back with the Diocese office. I'm only looking for records
before 1930.

Mary,
I had the same thing happen to me at a Catholic church in Visalia
when I was doing a survey of Church Records for a class I was
taking. I was allowed to only see my daughters (1977) record.
However, when I asked the person helping me about other records, I
was told that anything after 1930 was at the parish and restricted
but older records were archived in the Diocese office and were
available. You just had to request from them. You might check to
see if that works where you are. I agree with Cheri, making a
donation can never hurt.
