Hi Listers, Re today's discussion of Murfins, I took a quick look searching for "mur" in my baptisms starting in 1813, and didn't find any till 1837. When I was at Eaton Socon in June, I had a discussion about this with a local expert, who pointed out that especially in the northern part of the parish, it could have been closer to walk to the St Neots parish church with an infant than the Eaton Socon church, so the baptism may well have taken place there. Even Eynesbury isn't that far away. Having spent some hours at the Huntingdon Record Office, it seems that St Neots baptisms have been transcribed and checked, but for whatever reason, hasn't been published yet! However, I do know that you can request and purchase copies of pages of the transcription from the Record Office, as I've done so for my Bundys. Eynesbury has been transcribed, but not checked yet. You'll notice every once in a while in my Eaton Socon transcription that clergy from St Neots and Eynesbury performed Baptisms at Eaton Socon. Peter is certainly correct re the IGI in Huntingdonshire, as the LDS was not allowed to film much of anything in that county. :( Jim Bundy (with credit card in hand waiting to give money to the Hunts FHS for any and all St Neots or Eynesbury materials) Page 192 When Baptised (year) Month Day Child's Christian Name Son of / Daughter of Parents Name Surname Abode Quality, Trade, or Profession By
