Liverpool PRs 1800-05

[marine105]

Any help or advice please on finding the baptisms of 2 brothers, John and Christopher CROSS, born Liverpool approx 1801 & 1803 respectively.

Their father, John CROSS, Tanner, lived in Orange Street at the time but I don't know which parish that was in. He had moved down from Barton near Preston about 1800 so had no special links with Liverpool churches. He didn't take them back to his home church either! Mother's name was Hannah.

The following registers have been searched for me without success:
St Nicholas
St Stephens, Byrom St.
Christ Church, Hunter St.
St Johns, Old Haymarket
St Paul's, St Paul's Sq.
St James, Toxteth
St Mary's Walton
St Thomas. Park Lane

Hi

What information do you have that makes you sure they were baptised?  Many children weren't.  Also - children could be christened many months or even years after birth

No firm info that they were baptised, only that they were the 2 youngest of a family of 7 and the 5 elder ones were all baptised in Broughton (the parish which at the time included Barton). Ages at death of those I have traced indicate their baptism was within months of their birth. The searches carried out so far in Liverpool parishes went up to 1805/6.
