Hi all. I’ve noticed a few posts talking about how the dates were wrong
When reading an OPR, read  carefully. Most of the time they only record a baptism record not a birth record.  So if dates are out check if they mention the birth.  For example ,I have come across records that say “John Smith baptised today aged five “ I even saw one entry they were aged 14! Some entries have said baptised today born such and such a date. 
So if you are totally relying on dates and looking for that kid who was baptised when he was 14 ,the dates would be way out.
It is the same with marriage; usually they post the banns   Occasionally,  they write in the actual wedding date.
