I'm confused

On BCC you have Francis Carter Ball Abt 1812 with father Francis Carter Ball abt 1787
https://bcconnections.tribalpages.com/t ... ver=475479

The baptism for Francis son of Francis and Ruth is
County Staffordshire
Place Darlaston
Church name St Lawrence
Register type Unspecified
Birth date 16 Jan 1790
Baptism date 28 Nov 1790
Person forename Francis
Person sex M
Father forename Francis
Mother forename Ruth
Father surname CARTER
Transcribed by Jonathan Maxfield
File line number 1929

I cannot see a baptism for Francis 1779 you have on BCC
https://bcconnections.tribalpages.com/t ... ver=475479

Is the 1790 Francis the father of Francis 1812.

Out on a limb here but what do you think of this
Benjamin Foster who married Hannah could be a brother to Daniel Foster who married Nancy Carter

Sorry if i have confused you

I just keep going on a tangent with this family!
I think some were not married and names added as middle names then also mixed up with marriages!
I am still adding...

I think I have added all that I can...
