Yes, I would agree with slowhands' reply. I am sure that Richard was baptised 10th April 1817 in Linton.

I have spent a long time looking at all the possible Richards in both Herefordshire and the Forest of Dean and this Richard is the only one that it could be. His parents were Joseph and Mary Ennis who were married in Linton on 27th Oct 1805. I am not sure where Joseph came from. Do you have any idea?

slowhands mentions an entry for the 1841 census for an Edwin Baldwin born about 1837. Again I have looked at all the possible Edwin or Edwin Charles or just Charles Baldwins in the 1841 of about that age and this is the best bet so far.

I have not found Richard Baldwin's death. He is not given as deceased on either of the marriage certificates of Edwin. Any ideas?
