Roger,

I think that the reason for the seemingly double entries is that the first entry is made at the Parish Chapel, for example, Bream or Blakeney, and then it is eventually recorded in the parent parish, Newland or Awre, for example. It would also explain why some of them are out of date order. . .They were probably transcribed into the parent register at a later, more convenient date.
