The Common Room / Re: Double christening?
« on: Tuesday 06 June 23 09:35 BST (UK) »My first thoughts were whether there were specific circumstances around this particular double baptism where the couple might have persuaded the minister in Beighton, the neighbouring parish to where they lived, to carry out a second baptism for some reason.Another harmless possibility might be that the intended vicar was absent for some reason, and the family went next door, as it were, as soon as they could - then repeated the ceremony when their local vicar returned ?
