Hi Jim,

Following on from my reply of yesterday, I have just found the "Advanced Search" on this website (no-one can ever accuse me of moving too fast !).

This makes searching for children's baptisms of particular parents infinitely easier.

A search using just the parents names shows 17 children at Ruardean.
I presume they are all the same family ?

I think that is the biggest family yet on my "Tree"!!

I'll have to see what other treasures I can uncover...

(it's a shame I am unlikely to visit the record office as I still prefer to look through the original documents)

Thanks again Jim,
mxb...
