Georgina Clapp & George Freeguard

[David Hankey]

Help required, please.

One of my ancestors, George Freeguard, married Georgina Clapp at St Matthew, Moorfields, Bristol on 1st March 1884, but which one?!!

Her father is listed as Henry, however, there are two christenings of Georgina Clapp, one dated 24th June 1860 and the other dated 25th February 1863 both in Bristol and  both showing the father as Henry and mother as Mary Ann.

Would she have been christened twice or were there two girls with the same name?

Any help, as per usual, would be greatly appreciated. Regards, David

There is a death for a Georgina clapp in bedminster Bristol in 1861, no age given tho

Maybe the first one died and the next female was given the same name, not uncommon.

Thanks for your help, friends.

I hadn't found/seen that death so it answers my question.

Many thanks, David
