Baptist church in Dorking

[Jane Masri]

Does anyone know of a Baptist church or chapel in Dorking (1876-1886)?
I have evidence of a family who seem to be baptist in Dorking but no baptism's showing for the parish church online.  The SHC only have records for St. Martins & St. Pauls.  So where might the children have been baptised (if at all) ?

Hi


Baptists do not baptise children. The best you could hope for is records that said the children were entered into the congregation of the church. Baptist records, of the main non-conformist churches, seem to have the poorest survival rate.

Other non-conformist possibilities.

The Independent Chapel (West Street)
The Methodist Chapel (South Street)
also a Wesleyan Chapel built in 1850

Thanks for your reply Valda.  It looks like no records survive for Dorking
