Just want to thank Charani, Tony, Adrian and Edna for your help. It seems I may not have the right family here, as it's a bit of a stretch to think a Musician would become a Coppersmith???? What puzzles me is that my ancestor William Henry born c1825 maintains on the 1851 and 1861 censuses that he was born in Bristol. Does the "Bristol Diocese" cover all parishes in Bristol? I notice that on GENUKI there are a fewer number of parishes listed under Bristol, than there are on the B&A FHS CD covering baptisms for the Bristol Diocese. The William Henry HARRIS x'd 1825 at Temple Bristol is apparently the only William Henry with a father Henry on the CD, per Tony's reply. So if the CD covers the whole of Bristol, where do I go from here........
