Baptism Louis/Lewis Clement - Norwich perhaps?
« on: Wednesday 29 April 15 17:26 BST (UK) »
Looking for a baptism for Louis/Lewis Clement born 1856 in Aldersgate. On 1861 census I have him aged 4 with his aunt Harriett L Wright age 28 b Swanton Morley living at Hellesdon Norwich. I have a document with his date of birth 24 April 1856 followed by another date 4th July 1860 which might be a christening date ?

I asked this 8 or so years ago, see .....

.... but no answer, so I'm trying again.

Thanks John

Thanks Yokel, I've seen these before - I thought on the Norwich baptism her birth year was 1832 but it sure looks like 1852. However I cannot find birth index for her in 1852 - odd? 

I found newspaper article of 6 June 1860 in Norfolk News....re an assault on Miss Harriet Lewis Wright, the schoolmistress of Hellesdon National School, who resides a few yards from the school-house, at which one of her children attends. So if this is same person she'd be only 8 in 1860. Plus another on 16 Sept 1865 prize awarded to Miss Harriette Lewis Wright, mistress of the National School, Hellesdon.
