George Tomlinson b.c. 1825 - Drax - Parents if possible, please!

[Emsworthy]

Hi all,

I'm trying to get further back with George Tomlinson.  He was born c.1825 in Drax (Selby) and went on to marry Elizabeth Marshall in 1846.  I am so far certificateless, but thought I'd ask here before I purchase anything.  Does anyone have access to a baptism record for George?

Many thanks,

Regards, Emma

There is an 1841 entry Drax which could be him but birthyear is 1827 and he is not with parents.  Seems to be a male servant on a farm.

The baptism of the George Tomlinson above can be found on FS but without confirmation from his marriage cert as to his fathers name - it's anybody's guess whether it's the same person
