That looks fairly promising.

Maureen - I think you have hit the nail on the head.  Not quite what I was thinking earlier but a good result so very well done

MaureenNY - That's a very interesting thought, I did check to see if Samuel jnr changed his surname to Skidmore but didn't find anything positive.  No reason he couldn't change it the other way though.
I'll follow that down and see I can find conclusive evidence.  Thanks for the tip!

Alex

PS. Just seen your later posting,  that is very, very interesting!   Btw how did you get access to Longnor Parish Recorcds?  I'm bedevilled be not having a copy of them!
I will have to broaden my view about this affair and do some more searching.  Many thanks once more

Thanks,Carole. :)

You're welcome,Alex. I think willsy may have found the baptism on FMPAST?

Good luck with your research.
