No Potty, I have only looked at transcriptions. This fella is quite important to me so a visit to the records office is needed. Last time I went I wasn't very good at it!

Hello,

I have found some children baptised twice - once in CofE church and once in a Roman Catholic one. In their case I suspect it was because one of the parents was Protestant and the other Catholic.

hi its possible the child was baptised the first time as he was ill and not expected to live and had to be done quickly. he then recovered and had the ceremony again to celebrate his recovery. This happened to my father as a child.
