Baptised Twice (General)

I suspect it happened. My suspicion is that it was more to do do with the Poor Laws. Since 1538, everyone had to belong somewhere. If a family moved, it might well want to get official recognition in the new village. I suspect it happened in my family at one point, can't prove it though.
