Frederick SEDGWICK 1909 Little Clacton or Thorpe le Soken

[SimonK]

I'd be very grateful if anyone could do a Parish Records look up for a baptism of Frederick Reginald SEDGWICK for me. He was born in March 1909 in either Little Clacton (1911 census) or neighbouring Thorpe le Soken (family tradition). Thank you.

Are you certain he was b. Mar1909?

This is the only birth reg I can find

Frederick Reginald Sedgwick
Jun qtr 1909
Tendring
4a 782


and this ties in with the following death reg

Frederick Reginald Sedgwick
born 19  April 1909
death reg Mar qtr 1977
age 67
Westminster
15 2124

Yes, that's right, born in March so the birth was registered in the June quarter - March 30th, I believe!

[suzard]

but the death reg gives his d.o.b. as 19 April??

The free 1911 index shows his birthyear as 1910.  What was his mothers name on the 1911

[CaroleW]

Depending what you know of the family - if Frederick had younger brothers called Harold S and Gordon A - then their mothers maiden name was Reeves as per freebmd

[SimonK]

No, you are right, I'd remembered it wrong! It was April.

However, the fact remains that I am still desperate to learn if he was baptised in either Little Clacton or Thorpe le Soken - or, of course, possibly neither! I'd expect it to be some time in May or June if he was.

Yes, don't worry, I know all that :-)

Just want to know which font they dipped his head in.
