Gayle As you say a Sarah Brown is baptized at IM 14 Jul 1811, issue is that the BTs on OPC do not give parents names. I suggest that the Parish Registers may contain this information, often the BTs have missing data due to damage or poor transcription (by the original parish clerk, no reflection on Hilary who transcribed the data for the OPC). You could try contacting the Dorset History Centre to see if they can provide a look up, alternatively you could go the link on the Contacts page http://www.opcdorset.org/ContactPage.htm, Keith may be willing to do a look up next time he is in town.
