Baptism Record Help pls.
« on: Friday 28 October 05 17:30 BST (UK) »
Hi
Can anyone help with the Baptism Record of Caroline Mary Leavens pls. Born to that name in 1896 but married with name Caroline Annie Dorothy Leavens, was this changed at Baptism?  Also no death record of either of them in 1928 if anyone can help.
Thanx
Margaret.

Where was her birth registered? Without that trying to find a baptism in Cambs is asking a lot. Do you have an address from her 1896 birth cert which might indicate in which parish she was baptised?
Presumably  the death entry will be in her married name, not her maiden name? Have you been through the GRO indexes for all variations of her married name? How do you know she died in 1828?

Regards

David

Hi David,
It was registered in 04/01/1898 in the sub-district of Saint Andrew the Less and she was actually born on 18/11/1897 and the address they lived at was 22 York Terrace, Cambridge.  I know she died in 1928/9 as my Husbands mother was only 4 yr old at the time, but there is no record of her dying in her married name of Collison or Maiden Name of Leavens. I have checked all the variations of the spelling too and years.
Thanx Margaret.
