I have someone who was baptised twice, the first one was within days of her birth and was a private baptism, which I am told happens when the child is not expected to live, she was then baptised later, presumably when she recovered. She was my 4th Gt grandmother

Was it possible that a child might be baptised twice in two different locations? I have a possibility in Derbyshire that Thomas Needham was baptised both in Monyash and Chelmorton in 1800 and similar for other Needhams. It didn't happen often, I just wonder if it might have happened at all.

There are so few Needhams in Monyash, it makes me think.

Derek might offer some advice.
