Church of England Baptism Records post 1915
« on: Saturday 26 January 19 23:12 GMT (UK) »
The Baptism of Alice Arnfield is listed in Manchester, England, Church of England Births and Baptisms, 1813-1915 and is recorded as 28 July 1909 at Christ Church Denton in the County of Lancashire.

Howerver where could I seach for the baptism of my mother Doris Arnfileld  who was born on the 22 November 1919 - mother Lizzie Howard and father Benjamin Arnfield.

Her brother Leonard Arnfield was born 27 July 1915.

Any hint on where to seach woul be most appreciated.

cheers Trevor Walmsley, Christchurch, New Zealand

As a matter of interest, what do you feel that a baptism record would tell you that a birth certificate wouldn't?  Are you sure she was baptised or assuming that she was?

Births Dec 1919   
Arnfield    Doris    Howard    Stockport    8a   48

I am assuming that your mother went to New Zealand at some point which is why her record is closed on the 1939 Register.
