Ah yes, great -- that fits in with what I have.

Any idea how I find the name of the Church he was baptised in in Childwall? It doesnt seem to be mentioned in the Christening record...

Thanks again!

Likely to be the parish church, All Saints (see link I posted at reply #1) though I can't guarantee it.
