Lookup Saint Thomas, Dudley, Worcester,

Hello wonder if anyone can possibly check out the following information Saint Thomas Dudley 1857 I found in the IGI, because I cannot find a birth entry in the national Index to match this 1842.
I know baptisms can be any time after birth but it is the  birth I cannot find to match this so was wondering if there would likely be more info in the 1857 record.
SARAH ANN PETFORD
Birth: 08 DEC 1842   
Christening:  22 NOV 1857   Saint Thomas, Dudley, Worcester, England

Hello there
yes parents John petford and Elizabeth higgs been married early 1830's.  It is just that I could not find the birth that is in the LDS records, in St Catherines index either free or at Ancestry.  In 1851 it says Sarah Ann is 6 so indicates around 1845.  but 1861 says 18 so indicates 1843  and 1881 35 so back to 1846.
There is a birth for Sarah Ann Petford 1844 birmingham and one 1846 Alcestor but nothing for Dudley where I believe she was born.
Thank you for the link Looks like that could be it I just checked the name Sarah Ann Peteford at Ancestry and viewed the original index. I have found numerous spellings and transcribed petford patford potford. Think I will apply for this one first.
thank you again for your help
regards
Amelia
