Thank you to everyone who answered, I have been working with several of the registers from All Saints in Dewsbury. Because Ancestry chopped them up by year and the pages are no longer in order it makes it difficult to analyze the actual register. They even took the Baptismal/Christening register and combined it with the marriage register. I really wish Ancestry would not break things up! There are several years where they are in Latin. On some of the pages for different years the header above the where the '3s' are is the word Days. The last column on some pages is listed as Town. When I first looked at the entry for William Robinson's burial 19 September 1787 http://tinyurl.com/l7qr3rv I thought I saw the word pauper but then I started to question myself. The previous record I was reviewing was a baptism for William Robinson http://tinyurl.com/kzgjbbf 25 July 1728. This record is in Latin. Again thank you to everyone who responded. Ann Hi Ann There isn't any Latin on p. 430. The headings across the top of the page read: Month Day Christenings Towns On the right hand side of the christenings column most entries are marked '3', and a few, such as the one for Hannah Richardson, are marked pauper. For a brief period at the end of the 1700s there was a tax on baptisms. The amount paid, 3 pence, is recorded, or the reason for exemption, e.g. pauper. The entry in the towns column is Dewsbury. Were you trying to compare this entry with your record of interest? If so, it would be better to show us the entry of interest, rather than something that looks similar, but may not be the same at all.
