Lindsey, There are more Stothart's listed for the same church, I didn't list them because of the difference in name, but if you want them just let me know. Sue |

Thanks Sue - I think this must be the one I am looking for. Even Joseph is a family name so it seems to make sense. Thanks for your help with this - I really appreciate it. Lindsey |

It would appear they didnt as only one child is listed in his family at the point of the christening but I guess its a possibility. I will certainly have a look into it. Thanks for the advice - its given me something to think about Lindsey |

Did they have more than 1 child because sometimes the parents saved money by christening several children at once. |

Was it common for a christening to occur a couple of years after birh. I have a Thomas Stoddart in my tree, born around 1819 in Northumberland. The only record of a christening I can find for a Thomas Stoddart in this area on IGI was in 1822 - 2 or 3 years after his birth. Was this common or is it unlikely to be the right bloke? Lindsey |
