Bap James Heaton 1769 Sheffield help please
« on: Sunday 05 February 23 19:17 GMT (UK) »
Please can anyone help?
I believe that the following record has come from the BTs for Sheffield, Parish Church (Sheffield Cathedral):
Bapts 1769
Feb  9  James  s of  John Heaton  Tilter
(NB the top of this page is missing, and I have relied on the transcript)

BUT I have checked the PR for Sheffield, Parish Church, and I could not find this record!

Also, there is a vey similar record, which I believe is:
Attercliffe, Bapts 1769
Feb 9  Jams  s of John Heaton  Filesmith

So, I think it's the same child, (with the father's profession being wrongly stated on one of the records), but don't know if the baptism took place in Sheffield, Parish Church or Attercliffe.
I'd be very grateful for any help,
Thanks,
Kit

Do you have FindMyPast, kit54? If so, you can view an image of the parish register of Attercliffe and see James' entry:

Thanks very much for both your replies.

I used to have access to FindMyPast, but not anymore - hence I cannot check this out myself.

I have seen the Attercliffe record, but I also seen the one supposedly from Sheffield Parish Church BTs, (or at least that is what I think the transcript stated). I just wondered if there has been a mix up with the records?

Thanks for your help,
Kit
