Skeffington baptism 1799
« on: Friday 08 March 13 12:53 GMT (UK) »
Hi,

Would anyone be able to check out a baptism for me please?   I'm particularly interested in any additional info for abode and occupation to try to confirm this is the person I'm looking for.

It's a baptism I've found on the IGI.

Skeffington - 14 Jul 1799 - Sophiah d/o Wm and Eleanor Bailiff

Thank you.

Hi Mike,

Thanks for the reply.  The person I'm looking for was a traveller, and I was hoping that there might be something in the entry to confirm this, or to rule it out.

It's still good to have the IGI entry confirmed though, so thanks for that.

Jo.
