Member Since: July 2005 Posts: 10,663 Send Message	Have EDITED my 1148 post re Elizabeth's 1816 baptism - from the free reg site, this would appear to be the baptism date of an Elizabeth born 13.9.1803, dau. of Daniel a Blacksmith and Sarah. If you check the freereg site yourself (noted by Chris Ho above), you will see that there appears to have been a "batch baptism" of all the children on 25.8.1802 (10 of them I reckon! There is then the Elizabeth b 1803 and baptised 1816. The Elizabeth b and baptised in 1802 presumably died and the next child born was a girl and given the name as often happened. I wonder if the first Elizabeth was ill, so they wanted her baptised and "did" the rest at the same time. You need to have a good look yourself as various of the children are entered on the site more than once and have different birth dates i.e. Ann 5.6.1790 and 10.1.1790 etc. It is perhaps poor writing in the parish register which has been badly transcribed or .
