My first foray into Parish registers has left me scratching my head and I'm hoping someone may have an idea about the following. Parish register for Ivinghoe Bucks, 1823 Baptism I have on one page on 3 September the baptism for a William Wells (with no birth date) born to Thomas & Elizabeth Wells of Ivinghoe with his occpation being a Labourer. Then on the next page of the register I have 7 December William (born Aug 9 1823) to Thomas and Elizabeth Wells of Ivinghoe with his occupation being a Labourer. The only difference between the two baptism records is the minister who performed the baptism. Has anyone else come across this at all? Is it possible they just decided to baptise William twice? many thanks Judith
