BAPTISM - GREENWICH - 1854

I know I could get the birth cert but.... Henry Hutchinson born 1854 in Greenwich. I found him and his family on various census - all in Greenwich. I have managed to find baptisms for all of his siblings - but I just can't find his! Father was William Clark, mother Mary Ann. Siblings are Sarah 1839, Maria 1841, Emma, 1843. Charles 1845, Edward 1848, Robert 1851, Alfred Harris 1857 and Arthur Thomas 1860. The problem is that he is my link with this family - in census he only appears as Henry H and I just can't quite work out if I have the right family!

Hoping someone can delve amongst mis-transcriptons etc to find his baptism - otherwise I will have to shell out for the cert :)

when you say his father was William Clark, do you mean William Clark Hutchinson?

oooh! Interesting! Could be a red herring though! No, the Henry I am looking for is Henry Hutchinson CLARK. Sorry, I realise my original post was misleading. If I have found the right Henry on the census, his father William was born in 1814 in Penge, Surrey.

Have not put a name correction against the baptism entry as really needed a second opinon

Gai

Gai Report 8 Feb 2011 22:21

Yes, that's the one. The address is Jubilee Court (same as his younger brother's baptism) and William is a Carter (same as on his his younger brother's baptism). Well done Glitter Baby - and thanks!

How on earth do you do this so quickly?

Gai

PS - I have corrected the name on the Ancestry image.

Glad it is the right one

All those searching for Henry Hutchinson can stand down !!!

Wasn't clear that his surname was Clark.

Mike and Ann - I'm really really sorry for leading you on a wild goose chase! I thought I had given you the information you needed, realised I hadn't and replied but you had already started. Humblest apologies.
