Aw Jill, thank you.... I'll have a little rummage around in my spare time... I would like to know what happened to him, lol!! I know the date of his baptism.... but it would mean trawling through all the entries for all the babies born that year/quarter.... I might try John Stepney....... mmmm!!

Poor little fella.... he was probably transported or something, assuming he survived!

Well... he didn't live for nothing, cos his Aunty Daff cares, lolol!

Love

Would depend on the year maybe? Pre 1875 they might not be registered.
