Deciphering a Birth Date
« on: Saturday 30 November 19 03:02 GMT (UK) »
The person in question is no 1488 - John William Newton. Baptism is July 9, 1820. There's another column to the far right of the page, at the seam really - I'm not sure what it contains? Could it be the birth date? The column header indicates "By whom the ceremony was performed" but the entries are all dates?

Thoughts - suggestions - confirmation?

Born (is written above 'by whom the ceremony was performed") 13th March

Forget that ... wrong entry.  ;)
