Matthew Downer 1732 Breamore baptism missing
« on: Saturday 22 July 17 02:22 BST (UK) »
Hello.
 I'm trying to find a baptism record for Matthew Downer. He has a burial record transcribed under the name Mathey Downer which gives his birth as 1732 and his marriage record from 1756 at Salisbury, Wiltshire, says "of Breamer." (Breamore)  He married Ann Saunders.
There's a Charles Downer and Frances Bampton having children either side of 1732 in Breamore but no sign of a baptism for Matthew. I tried looking in both Hampshire and Wiltshire baptisms and some Sussex ones as I think there's a link between the Downer families of all three counties and possibly the Isle of Wight.
Thanks.

Thank you very much. The Matthew from Hale looks a likely possibility.  :)
