Hi Greensleves.
 Thanks for replying. It is possible that 1630 is an error for 1620. Supposed parents were James Garnham and Alice Fenn who married in 1613

Thanks jim1 and Gadget. Not Elizabeth then.

All of the Windows programs, together with Libre Office, Open Office etc should read and write both .doc & .docx documents. They should all also read & write the Open Document Format used by Libre Office and Open Office.

I think it all depends on which religious denomination you belong to, local traditions and quite possibly the phase of the moon or which way the wind is blowing. You pays your money and you take your choice.
I was bought up in a nonconformist, largely Baptist, tradition. As far as I am concerned christening is a naming ceremony whilst (adult) baptism (complete immersion) marks your entry into the church at an age when you can understand and accept the beliefs. A friend of mine who is a CofE lay preacher is horrified by this heresy and insists that baptism is a ceremony introducing someone into the church and that this is confirmed when they enter the church at an age when they are supposed to be able to understand the implications.
My stepchildren were dedicated in a Baptist church, that is as babies they were introduced to the congregation who promised to help bring them up in the Christian tradition and guard over them.
In practice the two terms are nowadays probably completely interchangeable

One comment in a parish register solved a problem I had. Couldn't find a marriage anywhere, she had taken his name and their children were all registered and baptised with his surname. Then against one of the baptisms in the parish register the clergyman had fulminated "This couple live together as man and wife but they are not married". Missing marriage problem solved.
