Baptism needed for Townsend
« on: Monday 12 February 24 18:36 GMT (UK) »
I’m trying to find a baptism record for Richard Townsend born abt 1789 Ramsay Huntington

In 1841 census Richard states he was born in 1791 living at Ramsay

1851 census  he goes on to say he was born in 1791 in Ramsay

1861 census Richard says he was born 1790
And then in 1871 census born 1790 before he died 1872.

No baptism for a Richard Townsend or Townshend in Ramsey St Thomas for that time period. There is a Mary Townsend, daughter of William and Susanna, who was baptised there on 23 July 1788 however.
Knighton in Huntingdonshire and Northamptonshire
Tweedie in Lanarkshire and Co. Down
Rodgers in Durham and Co. Monaghan
McMillan in Lanarkshire and Argyllshire
