    1. Stottesden and Neen Savage multiple baptisms
    2. I have a record of 2 baptisms, checked at Shropshire Archives. They seem to refer to the same person:- Stottesden & Farlow: June 21st. 1795: John, son of Richard & Mary Martin Neen Savage: July 26th. 1795: Jno., son of Richard & Mary Martin Assuming that John/Jno are the same person, is such a multiple baptism common? Was it legal? Would it be above board, or was it an attempt to get multiple settlement rights? Or was it merely Richard baptising a son in his original parish, before baptising him in his current parish? Thanks, GJ
