Taylor families, Rochdale mid 1600's and early 1700's

Would anyone be able to check the Parish record for the christening of a James Taylor 17 Feb 1639 with father James at Rochdale.
  Rochdale has not yet been extracted in the transcripts for the mid 1600's.
 There were two James Taylors having children about the same time. The original parish record may provide a place for this one or some other detail.

Wyanga,

If you have access Ancestry have the parish records for St Chad Rochdale and you will find the record you want there.
However it will only give you the same details as on the Family Search Record which I'm assuming is where you found it in the first place.

          Yes it came from familysearch. Annoyingly Ancestry blocks me from viewing these records. Apparently my membership does not cover them.

Yes, it does depend on which membership package you have as to what you can and can't see.

The early parish registers rarely gave much more detail than the name of the child, father's name and the church.
So even looking at the actual parish register it wouldn't give you anything more than you already have from family search.

To further clarify, the Zacary Taylor who was having children in Lancs in the 1680s could have been a cousin or brother of the man who emigrated to Virginia, apparently ca1660 and not the emigrant himself. The emigrant was James Taylor, who was fathering children until 1696 and died in 1698.

The James Taylor that emigrated to America was the ancester of the President Zachry Taylor in the US.
     Four of the suceeding generations to James, in America, used the name Zachary in their children.
  We are trying to establish a link between the Zacharai Taylor in Rochdale in the 1660's with a James Taylor to determine who the immigrant James to America might be.
