BOUGHTON ALUPH / EASTWELL baptism look up request

[Nhoj0471]

If someone has access to Boughton Aluph & Eastwell Parish records, looking for baptism of Sarah KENNETT between 1700-1730.  Also a Peter AMIS/AMOS 1640-1660.
Any help would be appreciated.

Sorry not Boughton Aluph or Eastwell but there is a baptism for a Sarah Kennet at Wye as follows

1708 Oct 12 Sarah Kennet d/o Richard & Elizabeth.

There appear to be 8 other baptisms at Wye to the same parents (between 1700 and 1713) before the family seems to move to Boughton Aluph where a further 6 children are baptised up to 1725.

There is a baptism at Wye as follows (transcription only)

1639 July 10 Peter AMIS s/o John and Amy

Unfortunately there are various notes and letters inserted in the Wye Register, obscuring the original as filmed!  These relate to a baptism of a Peter Amies ye son of Aphara the daughter of John and Amy, dated 1640 July 10.  This note continues "This is thought to be the baptismal register of the lady who became famous as Mrs Aphra Beha the first female novelist."

Sadly this does not scan and further notes dispute this etc. etc.

Thanks Tony for your help.  This may well be my Sarah Kennet.  From Wye parish burial transcripts I've seen a Peter Amis & Aphara Amis were buried soon after christening.  Both recorded as child of John.

Cheers
