you may find something on this site
http://cityark.medway.gov.uk/
Down the side you will see cityark-searching open parish registers online.Once opened
you need to scroll nearly to the bottom of the page where you will find the area transcribed.Open church pages in that parish .
Parish registers have been scanned(not transcribed) so it is a case of searching for baptism around the time of birth.
