Title: baptism look-up please Depden Suffolk 1840/41
Post by: jackski on Saturday 07 November 20 12:19 GMT (UK)
Hi
Would somebody be kind enough to look up a baptism for me please? I'm looking for Mary Bull, born end 1840 or beginning of 1841, probably baptised in Depden, Suffolk. Father sometimes went by the name of Leonard Bull, sometimes George Bull, and only once by his full name of Leonard George Bull. Mother was Eliza Bull (nee Dearsley). What I'm particularly wanting to know is whether the child baptised was called Mary, or Mary Ann. I can't find any record of this baptism on ancestry, or on familysearch. Am hoping maybe Findmypast might have it, or maybe somebody with access to the parish records elsewhere. Many thanks.

Why do you query if it was possible she was a Mary Ann?

There are a set of initials on an item I'm researching. They all belong to the same family but there is one set - MAB - that I don't know who they belong to.  It was just a possibility that I was exploring that she had a middle name that I didn't know about.
