Hi I need help. I have been hunting for a birth record for John Ellison who was born in 1881 at Barrington, Northumberland. Parents John Ellison and Elizabeth nee Wales or Wailes. Which Parish church would they get baptised or keep record?

Welcome to Rootschat :)

Barrington was in the Parish of Bedlington.
I see his birthplace is given as Barrington in the 1891 and 1901 censuses. In the 1911 it's Bedlington (free index on Genes Reunited)

Welcome from me too
His sister Martha's birth is shown as Ellinson Dec qtr 1886 South Shields
Brother Robert was Robert Wales Ellison Dec 1883 Tynemouth mmn Wales
There was also another child not on the 1891 - died Sept qtr 1890
ELLISON, MARY ANN mmn WALES March qtr 1889 SOUTH SHIELDS 10A 747

If John was born in Bedlington then his birth should be registered in Morpeth RD, but at the moment I'm struggling to find it :-\
-
In 1881 Elizabeth Ellison aged 28 - married - is shown as a visitor in the household of Elizabeth Wales. She already appears to have 2 Ellison children - Jane 6 and Elizabeth 4 who are not on the 1891 entry.
A Martha Ellison mmn Wales was registered 1879 Castle Ward and the next male Ellison/Wales birth is Robert - nothing for John in 1881-1883
-
In 1871 Elizabeth is with parents Charles & Elizabeth indexed as Wailes

Donna Marie, it seems you already know the names of John's parents, in particular his mother's maiden name.
What other information are you trying to discover from a birth/baptism record?
