My thinking was that maybe Isaac and rebecca were registered as George and Esther, but then the parents changed their minds!   
Just a theory but I don’t see them subsequently..so far anyway.

I would agree that this is very likely.   There are no apparent deaths registered for George & Esther

Very interesting and likely theory! I'll get a certificate.

Thank you so much everyone for all your help!

I have the parish records on fiche but they don't give any more details. Sometimes they will give date of birth or if they are twins but not this time.

If the children were born in St Ives they might have been registered in Huntingdonshire as it was a separate county then .
