Hi

I'm looking on some help with finding the correct info on my gt gt gt grand parents please. I'm getting so frustrated.

on my gt gt grandmothers Emma Leake Hickinbottom 1822 baptism record it says parents Edward and Rebecca . On her marriage certificate it says father being Edwin. I can see a marriage for a Edwin Higginbottom , Rachel Lake and a Rebecca Lake in 1823. then I see a death of a Rachel Lake and a Rebecca Higginbottom in 1824. I cant find a birth for either a Rachel or Rebecca Lake .
Could Rachel and Rebecca be the same person?
thanks in advance

I think the short answer is you need to see the original record?

Can you view it on Ancestry? I don't have access I'm afraid

Name:
Edward Higginbottom
Gender:
Male
Marriage Date:

Marriage Place:

which would then correspond with 1861 censor

Edward and Edwin seem to be interchangeable, have come across others.
