On 1881 census at Hillingdon, Grand Junction on boat ''Pilot'' as follows; Joseph head/master tonnage b Aylesbury Sarah wife b Harefield Hannah b Eastwood Emma b Stoke hammond Thomas b Berkhampstead James b Hampstead John b Paddington Three of the children were baptised at Berkhampstead. Was there a tradition of having a 'home' church where baptisms and marriages etc were held, regardless of where on the canal they had been born?
