Thank you, once again, for your informative reply. I must assume that Jesse Stephens who was my 2xgreat grandfather, was either not Baptised or the minister forgot to enter the record in his book.
I have his year of birth 1827 from the census records which are consistent throughout, and his marriage certificate confirms this (age 23).
The Baptisman record which comes closest to Jesse's detail is the one which is posted above 1849 - the mother, Sarah is right, but he certainly was not a child. It was 15 months before he married !

I think I am grasping at straws, so I shall put it to rest now.

Again many many thanks for your time and your help.
