Julie, please don't delete. I wasn't being critical of you. I really don't understand what you mean by 'same thing'.

This is interesting. Remember back towards the beginning of this thread Reggie gave you some christenings of children for Thomas & Elizabeth including John Joshua.

Well Thomas Greeves Norris & Sarah Scotman Norris seem to have been baptized again in Bethnal Green in their early teens. It gives you an idea of when they moved to Bethnal Green. Now just have to find them in early censuses.
