Baptism look-up please
« on: Thursday 01 March 12 23:33 GMT (UK) »
Hi all

I had a look at the resources but couldn't see what I was looking for regarding baptism indexes/parish registers etc.

I'm helping a friend with

John Dickins/Dickens Howitt/Howett

He was born c1814 either Whittlesey or Wisbech

Married Ann Taylor in 1850 and if not nothing turns up, we'll get a marriage cert to find out who his father was.

Here's hoping
