British Lying In Hospital
« on: Sunday 22 October 17 05:26 BST (UK) »
Hi. Looking for a birth/baptism of Mark Prevost about 1794. He was possibly born in British  Lying In Hospital in 1794.  If anyone has access to these records would appreciate any possible info.

Thanking you

The wikipedia entry (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_Lying-In_Hospital) states:

The National Archives hold records of births and baptisms at the hospital in the period 1749-1868, and the London Metropolitan Archives holds a wealth of organisational records.

FindMyPast = transcription only (Pravot)

There's a fascinating case in the 1843 newspapers re. a Mark Prevost - plenty of column inches and widely covered.
