    3. Nick, The baptisms are there, but mistranscribed by Ancestry. Name: Jane Annie Daloymgale Record Type: Baptism Estimated Birth Date: abt 1875 Baptism Date: 28 Jun 1875 Father's name: David John Daloymgale Mother's name: Helen Dick Daloymgale Parish or Poor Law Union: Whitechapel St Mary Borough: Tower Hamlets Name: Marguerite Mary Dabrymple Record Type: Baptism Estimated Birth Date: abt 1879 Baptism Date: 18 Jun 1879 Father's name: David John Dabrymple Mother's name: Helen Dick Dabrymple Parish or Poor Law Union: Whitechapel St Mary Borough: Tower Hamlets Name: Sarah Walker Dabrymple Record Type: Baptism Estimated Birth Date: abt 1881 Baptism Date: 4 Sep 1881 Father's name: David John Dabrymple Mother's name: Helen Dick Dabrymple Parish or Poor Law Union: Whitechapel St Mary Borough: Tower Hamlets HTH Judy London, UK -----Original Message----- From: london-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:london-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of nicholas wilson Recently upon renewing my research into my Dalrymple grandmother's family, I discovered the baptism details of three of her siblings on Ancestry.co.uk, but no sign of the other three. Each of the former was christened at Saint Mary's Church, Whitechapel, per LMA records available to Ancestry. All six children were born in either Bow or Hackney within a space of five years and so I wonder why I cannot find the details for all six. I am pretty sure all the children were baptized at the same church even though the family moved north to Hackney after the birth of the fourth child. I am aware that the church was lost in the blitz but obviously some if not all the records were saved. If I make a personal visit to the LMA am I likely to find a record of the three 'lost' baptisms? At present I have George 1877, Helen 1879 and Henry Wilson 1880. I do not have Jane Annie, 1876, Marguerite May 1879 and my grandmother, Sarah Walker 1881. Thanks, Nick Richmond, B.C.
