1762 - 1783 Ponteland baptism register: BELL
« on: Thursday 27 March 08 04:42 GMT (UK) »
Hi all,

Thomas Bell and Jane (of Prestwick) baptised eight children (that I know of) in the parish of Ponteland between 1762 and 1783.

I am wondering what additional information (child number, occupation, abode, maiden name, native parish etc.) are given in the Ponteland baptism register for this period. I'm sure later (1780s) entries would contain greater (or different) detail than the earlier (1760s) entries.

Mary Bell (1762)
Thomas Bell (1764)
William Bell  (1769)
John Bell  (1771)
Elizabeth Bell (1773)
Jane Bell (1776)
Lancelot Bell (1782)
Robert Bell (1783)

I have viewed all of these (except John) in the Bishop's transcripts but there is not really any detail.

Would it be possible for anyone to look up any of these baptisms and let me know the additional information (if any).

Many thanks.
