I would recommend using Hugh Wallis's site for searching the IGI using Batch Numbers. This enables you to search specific Parish Records that are on the IGI. Go to: <a href="http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~hughwallis/IGIBatchNumbers.htm">http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~hughwallis/IGIBatchNumbers.htm</a></p>
<p>There are numerous GUEST entries in the Okehampton Registers.</p>
<p>Good luck<br />
Mike</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Just a query....</p>
<p>Is it possible to see if Ann Arthur Guest had sublings baptised in Okehampton for William and Jane</p>
<p>and if a Baptism for either William who would have been born around 1772, Jane possible around the same era,  I have found their marriage 23 April 1797..</p>
