Like several others I have a couple of people going by the name of Mary Christmas in my family tree. One in Hampshire in 1560 and the other in Rotherfield, Sussex in 1698.

I was looking for the birth of a distant cousin in January 1930 in Norwich, and the adjacent entry for birth registered in the first week of Feb 1930 had a boy born 25 December 1929 with Noel as a middle name. Norwich has scanned their own 1837-1961 birth returns, which must have been copied from the registrars entries as well over the years.
