NOTES:
1: All of the above baptisms at St. Michael & All Angels Parish Church, Croston, Lancashire, England.
2: It appears that Mary's baptism was an emergency baptism at home by someone other than a minister, hence the term "Lay Baptism". It may be that Mary was not expected to survive but did and was later "received into the church".
3: The above information is taken from Baptism records held at the Lancashire Record Office in Preston.
