Not necessarily, Edward. The records of Fishing Creek ( S.C.) Presbyterian Church have been published and in them are where Presbyterian minister the Rev. John Baird Davies baptised his own children Amelia Hardy Davies and my 2 great grandmother, her sister, Louisa Susannah Davies, as infants very soon after each was born. That would be in 1809 and 1810. ( and also his other children as each came along.). There was infant Baptism far earlier than that, but this was traditional at least by then.
