Looking on Freebmd at that one, someone has left a postem which says:

"28/09/2017:    Born 15 may 1862 iBiddulph Moor, son of Fanny Bailey who married Charles Brown 3 months later (14 July 1862) He married Alice Boon 1884 . Biddulph Moor aka William Richard Bailey. Baptized as William Brown.Known as Richard Bailey in all the censuses"

Thank you very much groom, pheno and keyboard86.

Yes oddly the baptism which I was about to post has no mention of Brown just shows 14th June 1862 Biddulph St Lawrence Charles occ Collier Mother Frances

Charles Brown   28   coal miner   Biddulph
Fanny Brown   27                     Biddulph

Of course, the census was just one night and it could be that Richard wasn't actually living with his grandparents but was just staying overnight.

Oh, I am puzzled. Could Fanny be short for Frances? No surnames in the text ? what's the source if I may ask?

[joger]

Interesting - he is described as son in that one.

David Bailey    head         57  stone mason
Sarah Bailey    wife          57
Richard Bailey  son           9
John Bailey      grandson   7

I think there is a mistake : Richard's not son but grandson . Who are John's parents? Did David and Sarah have several children?  I still cannot find anything on Familysearch though I have an account.

[groom]

Yes Fanny is short for Frances.

1881 his parents are still nearby, doesn't look as if there are any more children.
