St Martins Christenings 1807 & 1810

GONE BUT NOT FORGOTTEN
I doubt if there is any information additional to what I already have, but I would be grateful if someone could check these two entries for me please:-

1 Oct 1807 William s/o Lambert & Elizabeth LONGMORE (Born 24 Aug 1807)

and

10 Jan 1810 Maria d/o Lambert & Elizabeth LONGMORE (Born 27 Nov 1809)

These are the first two children that are just hanging there - all the younger siblings have been accounted for! If you happen to spot an infant burial for either of them, that would be icing on the cake!
Many thanks. :)

i can only see the two entries that you mention, and there is no extra info. it looks like "lambeth" and elizabeth longmore as the parents rather than lambert. it doesnt say their actual birthdate either, just the christening date.
 
Hi Shera,

Thanks for the info. For some odd reason I haven't got the source of these events saved, but I have an idea that they were culled from an old Bible by a third cousin in New Zealand. At least they are in the parish register, and Lambert is frequently rendered as either Lambeth or Lamberth. Oh well, I'll carry on digging, but William and Elizabeth are such common name in that family and in many others as well. :P

Cheers,

Maurice :cool:
