Henry Houghton c 1849 Essex

[angel~eyes]

I have been searching most the day for a baptism/birth entry for Henry Houghton b c 1849 in Essex (or Herts). His parents were Henry Houghton and Hannah Bradfield or Bradford. His family lived in Stansted but by thr 1861 census the family had moved to Stepney, London. In 1851 he was living with his grandparents in Stansted. He went on to marry Ann Smith and have 7 children in London. I have no death for him either. Any help would be much appreciated thank you in advance x

I too cannot find a birth registration, but he was baptised 29th December 1850 in Henham, parents Henry & Hannah. Henry's occupation Groom

Is this a possibility?

Joint Baptism
29th December 1850
Henham, Essex
Henry and William, sons of Henry (groom) and Hannah Houghton

There are these births, could it be they changed their mind about the name of the 1849 boy?
William Houghton June 1849 Bishop Stortford mmn Bradford
William Houghton Sept 1850 Bishop Stortford mmn Bratford
