completed - Berkshire, Longcot bap. 1833

Post by gandalf458x »

I wonder if someone has access to the Berkshire baptism registers whether they could please check the baptism of Elizabeth Anne Gearing on 21 Apr 1833 in Longcot?

There appear to be a few separate transcriptions which contradict each other. At least one gives the family residence as East Lockinge and another gives their residence as Longcot.

Her parents were John and Sarah.

Thanks

Many thanks Jimmy. I have to say that confuses me all the more! All the transcripts I've seen so far give the place of the christening as Longcot, but vary as to where the family lived.

Thanks again.

Yes, I've mapped Longcot and East Lockinge as well as Grove where Sarah was born and Shrivenham where John was born.

Cheers
