Baptism of Alfred Richardson at St Martins.

proper brummie kid
Firstly, as a new comer, may I thank anyone for taking the time and trouble to look up my request.
Alfred Herbert Richardson was born on the 1st February 1874. I do not know the date of his baptism but the locaton was Birmingham. The family in 1881 lived at Back Digbeth just opposite St Martins Church so my guess is that they were there in 1874 and that he would be baptised there reasonably soon after his birth. I would very much like to know his baptism details if possible. There might be a 'catch'. At this time his father was calling himself Richardson although his birth name was Green, so it is possible he was baptised Alfred Herbert Green.
 
ive had a look but havent been able to find the baptism at st. martins. what were his parents names please?
 
Sorry, should have thought of that. Fathers full name Frank Richardson or possibly Frank Richardson Green depending on which name he used. Mother was Mary.
 
unfortunately havent found any records for this couple at st. martins. cant see the baptism on familysearch.org either!
