Dear Shirlee, Lesson number one is not to simply believe what someone else has researched, without further proof, such as certificates of birth, marriage and death. We can get transcriptions, which are cheaper. Our records, if filled in correctly, will give details of parents, other siblings, place of burial or birth etc, which will help to prove who is who. There will not be that information in the 1850 as it is only really a Baptism Record. Official Registration started in 1856.
