Baptism of William BURCH
« on: Tuesday 31 January 12 17:43 GMT (UK) »
Could anyone please help in tracing the baptism of William Burch. From censuses he was born in 1825/1826/1827 in either Dawlish Devon or Lympstone Devon. His 20 March 1853 marriage certificate when he married Anna Garrish shows his father as being Thomas Birch (sic) who was a gardener. There seem to be baptisms of a William Burch around 1827 but the fathers are never a Thomas. Thanks for any light on this subject.

The IGI has his baptism mis-transcribed as William BUNT. He was baptised at Lympstone 24 Dec 1825 son of Thomas (Labourer) & Sarah.
