I am trying to access the church registers for "St. Michael & All Angels Church, Royal Marine Depot, Deal, Kent" to find baptisms for my late fathers brothers. I have my fathers baptism 1911 from the above church but cannot locate where the registers are kept. I have contacted the National Archives and the Royal Marines Museum in Portsmouth but both were unable to help me.
Where do I go from here?

That church isn't in their lists. Brothers not found on familysearch

Do you have a reason for thinking that the brothers were all baptised at the same church?

Were their births all registered in the relevant area?
