George Davis, Newent 1797 to 1881 (General)

Will there be any additional information on the actual parish registers for the baptism (1797) and marriage (1820) for George Davis, as opposed to that transcribed in the records on this site?

I still have the dilemma of two George Davis's baptised in Newent only 9 months apart, and can't fathom out which is the right one. One is dated July 30th 1797, and the other May 13th 1798, and obviously to settle matters and try and go further back i need to be sure of his parents.

Slowhands had suggested checking the death certificate to see if that helped but to no avail. I'm leaning to the 1797 George but only i think because i have lots of information on his brothers & sisters.

The 1841 census has him as George Danis in Upleadon, but by then he has set up home with his family, and left his parents behind.

Any help appreciated.
