Have you seen the original entry for the baptism? An uncle of mine was born and baptised in Sicily in 1808 while his parents were there with the army. On returning to Scotland, the baptism was noted in the parish register. Perhaps it's a similar note of an earlier baptism in India in the Bath register.

1861 at 5 Green Park Buildings, Bath you will find William and Elizabeth S Justice.

William born c 1799 Market Drayton, Shropshire.

F/S has their Marriage 19 September 1831 Madras, India.

I can see nothing strange, Phillip born India and then all Family or just Elizabeth home to England a few mths later where he was Bapt.

Also a WILLIAM CLIVE Justice was Bapt Bathwick, Somerset 20 May 1835 to William/Elizabeth Sophia  (FreeREG)
