Hello friends,
How do I find a specific "Rollo" on FamilySearch. I know how to search under "film number," but someone documented a source using the Roll number and not the film number and I am trying to follow their research back.
My source says the document was at the Archivo del Arzobizpado de Guadalajara, Roll 2989, 1611-1699 and that it is a Capellania. So, I went to the films under those dates at https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:9392-DG9H-6F?owc=3JW2-3TG%3A171…
but lo an behold there is no such roll number, the Capellania that is 1611-1699 is Roll#2986, and the one that is 1611-1854 is roll #2990, both of which are REALLY close, but are not the right number, which again is #2989.
I also looked at the Indexes that Kati Brecht has kindly put together, but I am not finding it. Maybe it has not been digitized?
Any ideas?
Thanks!
Sergio
PS Here is the link to the source I am following, p 99, footnote 20 https://books.google.com/books?id=Uc81YwxijI0C&pg=PA99&dq=D%C3%A1valos+…
Finding a Roll Number vs Film
I just remembered that once I went to the Archivo General de la Nación in Mexico City (Lecumberri) and I think there they have the same microfilms as Familsearch, but they list them by OAH roll number rather than microfilm number.

Hi,
I noticed the roll numbers you mention are preceded by the letters OAH, so I Googled "OAH 2989" and found this:

¡gracias por los aportes migueltren! https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.3.1/TH-1-18380-16563-38?cc=1874591&wc…. 001 168857. 002 oah 2989.
So I copied the web address:
https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.3.1/TH-1-18380-16563-38?cc=1874591&wc…
It takes you to film # 168857, OAH 2989 pt 4, Capellanías 1671-1859.
So I guess they divided the roll 2989 in several microfilms, the 4th one being 168857.
Good luck with your search.
