According to Family Search some of these baptisms were at All Saints, Newcastle upon Tyne.

However I've searched without success for some of them in the Bishop's Transcripts, moreover the BT's for All Saints for those date don't show the mother's maiden surname or her father's name.

I suspect an F.S. indexing mix-up. Given that Isabella was from Scotland its more likely that they were baptised at a dissenter's church. https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:J3JJ-96P
