Birth or Baptism help please

[klmadz2301]

Hi all

I am looking for the birth or baptism details for David Fisher. His parents are Edward James Fisher and Martha Fisher nee Clark. According to his marriage certificate to Jane Bass in 1882, he was born abt 1861. On the 1871 census, it says he was born in Kensingbury, Middlesex, England and on the 1891 census it says Kensington, London, England.

I posted on another board regarding his older sister who was born in 1860 but wasn't baptised until 1886, and it was mentioned that Edward James and Martha might have decided to be non-conformists with regards to the children's baptisms. The rest of the children that Edward and Martha had were baptised soon after birth but I can't find a single thing, other than marriage and census records for dates and places, that point to a birth or baptism for David.

If you require any other information, please feel free to ask.

Thank you

Using the new GRO births index, which shows the maiden name, there is this:

David Fisher  DecQ  1861   Kensington  1a   63      (mother Clark)

I think the 1871 census has been badly transcribed with the "h" from the line below appearing to join the line above and give a "y".

Thank you both so much.

Now i just have to find his death. his last appearance on a census was in 1891, and he was living in Camberwell. He is listed with his wife Jane, 2 sons and a daughter but I did notice that the daughter appears to be living with David's older sister in the 1901 and 1911 census. So i would assume that he has passed and all the children went to live with different family members. But i will know more once i trace the children further.

Thank you both again so much for the information.

Thank you once again

From doing a search on GRo with the mmn Bass between 1882 and 1900 I found several more births to David and Jane, although several passed away. I will have to investigate the new names and dates and see if they match up to my David.
