Thanks everyone!

The Leicester baptism is interesting
If he was baptised there I wonder why?


As its been mentioned that his Dad was Thomas, possibly born c 1715, this baptism may be relevant?

Very sorry but that Thomas Hilton, son of William and Eleanor, was buried 28 May 1718 at Stathern (same location as the baptism - 14 August 1715).

Thanks BumbleB, I didn't check it out any further which is why I said 'may' be relevant.
