???? this is a few years too early, but Mixbury's just a mile or so from Finmere.

I don't see any other likely baptism - but that doesn't mean this one's correct.

Thanks so much for this info,
wonder if it's possible to go any farther with Sophia's father John Paxton looks like he was born around 1810 from the 1851 census.

Name: Sophia Paxton
Baptism Date: 8 May 1836
Baptism Place: Finmere, Oxfordshire, England
Parish as it Appears: Finmere
Father: John Paxton
Mother: Sarah Paxton

Father a labourer of Finmere.

In the margin is a note: Richard Bull Sarah Bull (bracketed together. Maternal aunt.

I'm guessing they were godparents?


Most of the other entries have 3 names in the margin though, so 'Maternal aunt' presumably refers to an unnamed sister of Sarah's?

Re the marriage cert, Christina -

I've submitted a correction to Ancestry, though it probably won't be acted upon for ages.

Interestingly, the image also shows Sophia's sister Emma's marriage the following year.

Many Thanks
