Baptism places for the Campbell family
« on: Wednesday 22 June 16 10:41 BST (UK) »
I wonder if anyone would be able to help me identify where the children of Septimus and Sarah Campbell were baptised?  I've found 5 children on Familysearch, but for four of them there is no place name, just a date and the county.  They are:

Charlotte - 13.1.1787 Salehurst, Sussex
Ann - 7.11.1790
Harriet - 24.12.1793
Henry - 19.6.1796
Jonathan - 14.5.1809

There is another child, Philadelphia (my 3x gt grandmother) who was born in 1791, but I can't find any sign of a baptism for her.  On the 1851 census her birthplace is recorded as Dallington, Sussex and in 1809 she married in Mountfield, Sussex. 

In either 1793 or 1796 Septimus Campell of blacksmith of Mountfield is mentioned in a Will, and in 1797 there are Old Bailey records saying Septimus Campbell of Vine-Hall.

I'm also looking into Septimus' birthplace and his siblings (including Nonus, Decimus, Monimia, and Octavus!) - but I'll leave that for another question!

Thanks for your help,

Baptisms were indexed from LDS microfilm 1894273 -
Items 2 - 7: Parish registers for Kingston, 1557-1923
Items 8 - 11, Items 12 - 15: Parish registers for Mountfield, 1558-1901

That film is not available to view on Family Search
Bishops Transcripts show that they were baptized at Mountfield
Harriet bap 10 Feb 1793

Thanks for this information.  I'd thought it a bit odd that Familysearch said Charlotte was born in 1764!!  Must have been days not years!
