Dorchester GRO Look-Up Request - Webb Baptisms
« on: Friday 18 September 20 17:51 BST (UK) »
Would anyone happen to be doing look-up requests from the Dorchester GRO.? I live in the Netherlands and would appreciate any help given.

I'm trying to find the baptism dates of Noël Olive Mary Webb b.1932 (first quarter), David Ian Peter Webb b.04/06/1933 and Geoffrey Lindsay Patrick Webb b.07/09/1939 all believed to have been christened in St. Mary's Church, Halstock, Dorset.

Thanks in advance.

FindMyPast have no baptisms with surname Webb +/- 5 years of 1935.

Transcriptions and NBI are merely finding aids.  They are NOT a substitute for original record entries.

@BumbleB, odd because I have the baptisms of their older brother and sister in 1931 in Halstock.  ???

@CaroleW,

Not really. I don't see how discovering baptism dates is going to help find out who their father really was. He's used the name Raymond Carey Webb on the birth certificates of his eldest children, and that name is on his alleged wife's death certificate. The baptism dates are in hope of finding out where and when the children were christened as what is believed is that they were all born and christened in Halstock, and so far the birth places have proven to be different. If there are no baptisms for any of those children in Halstock, I'll have to widen the search somewhat..

OK - looking at the birth registration of Geoffrey L P Webb in December quarter 1939, the Registration District of Poole covers the following areas:  https://www.ukbmd.org.uk/reg/districts/poole.html - not sure that it covers Halstock  :-\  Same applies to David I P in 1933.
