Derbyshire / Clay Cross Baptisms
« on: Tuesday 30 August 16 10:01 BST (UK)  »
Can anyone help with finding baptisms for the 4 people below.  They were the children of Joseph STRETTON & Ellen WOLLERTON and although 3 were born in Leicestershire the STRETTON family seem to have had their kids baptized in batches so I was wondering if they had their last 4 baptized altogether in Clay Cross.

I have some Non conformist baptisms but without the denomination recorded.  I am attempting to over come this omission my using the name of the minister.   Would anyone known were I could get a list of Methodist ministers in Normanton c1887-1910?  I believe at this time there were 3 Methodist chapels in the town,  Primitive, Wesleyan & Methodist.
