Aspley Guise, Bedfordshire LOOKUP request fro HUTTON

[suepearce]

Can anyone assist me with a lookup?
I am looking for the baptisms of 4 of the children of JOHN HUTTON oo ELIZABETH NORRIS.
FAMILYSEARCH gives the same baptism date for all 4, namely Adam, Caroline, Henry and Arthur, the date being 27 March 1826. 
Adam HUTTON was one of the Byrne Settlers who came to the Natal Colony, South Africa in 1850.  He was a passenger on the ill fated Minerva which drifted onto the rocks and was wrecked in Durban harbour - with no loss of life.   He is the direct ancestor of my soon to arrive Grandchild .  Adam's brother Henry James Cooper Hutton also came out that year, but on another ship.  Adams son John settled in the Creighton District on the farm he named Bedford.  The Hutton family still farm there.
 
Thanks

Sue (Johannesburg)

What information are you after 

Some earlier Aspley Guise records are on freereg

I was about to ask the same question. It was a multiple Baptism so unlikely to have exact birth dates for Individual Children.

1841 John/Elizabeth are under Houlton, no Children at Home.

FreeREG has a John Hutton 1796 to James/Elizabeth, James a Farmer

It's not unknown for a group of children from the same family to be baptised on the same day.

Your original post did not mention birth dates?

I don't have these birth dates (yet) unfortunately.  I have seen group baptisms but I just thought it strange as two other children were baptised before and after this  date -  Henry James
 Cooper 28 Sept 1824 (born 4 Sept 1824) and Elizabeth Emma  28 August 1829.   I don't have the date of the parents marriage either.
 I'll take a look at FreeReg - thanks for that.

The BFHS transcripts have the same date for all 4 children and the only other detail is that John is a miller.

There's 2 other baptisms for parents John and Elizabeth, where John is listed as a farmer:
20/09/1824 Henry James Cooper HUTTON
28/08/1829 Elizabeth Emma HUTTON

Are you sure this isn't 2 different couples? It seems a bit odd to me that if they were the same couple that they'd have another son named Henry, baptised in 1826, when you believe Henry James Cooper later emigrated to South Africa.

EDIT: It's possible they could have re-baptised Henry, although being a small church you expect someone would have raised issue with this.

So something doesnt add up here.
