Hi Louise and Irene, Thank you for your replies. Yes, I have now noticed there are other late entries in the same OPR - no doubt to tidy up the records.But my g-grandmother Margaret Morrison's baptism is not recorded anywhere at all that I can find, either at her birth or in 1854. According to a flimsy little note I have (probably written by my gg-grandfather or gg-grandmother) she was born 9th Sept 1831. The other dates on the note - of her siblings - agree with the OPRs so I presume hers is also correct. She lived to be 86 and was the oldest inhabitant of Auchinleck at her death and got a very nice mention in the paper - so she lived a long and meaningful life even if her birth/baptism was somehow not recorded! Thanks again, Mary
