Hi, Is anyone going to Manchester records office or is it Lancashire records office i'm not to sure and can do a search on Burnage / Burnedge baptisum records for me please. On all the census John Pritchard says he is born in the above. I have sent for two certificates which have come back wrong so am convinced he wasn't registered so need to find a baptisum date if possible. His parents were George Pritchard and Esther Chandler on some accasions the father is down as George Davis Pritchard if it helps. I need top find this info so i can finish his part of my tree of. Any help greatfully recieved. Chris........

Can't help with records office, I'm afraid, though it might be that although John says he was born in Burnage he wasn't. Have you been able to find any John Pritchard births elsewhere but in the right time frame?

Looking at Burnage on www.streetmap*co.uk, I think this is the likeliest reg district, it includes Rusholme & Withington which are very close.
