	Hi Samantha I clicked on the (Click here to skip this stuff ....) Click on England Click on Yorkshire A-D Click on B scroll down to Bubwith Click on any of the C P or M numbers Enter surname in search box then you'll just have to scan down the names to see if any match up with yours. You can click on the name to see what the actual record says (they're all taken from the Parish Register) so you should be able to see parents names or spouse's surname I would put the Hugh Wallis site in your Favourites List, then you don't have to keep entering that huge long address! The quick glance I ahd seemed to show that you might be very lucky and find something!! sylvia

Member Since: May 2007 Posts: 787 Send Message	I never thought of one dying and a second being named after the first.

Member Since: March 2003 Posts: 34 Send Message	Many families used the same name for a child if the earlier one died, so the later birth is more likely.
Member Since: April 2004 Posts: 46,113 Send Message	SylviaInCanada	Report	2 Sep 2008 20:57
	It could be that the first one died and a second born was given the same name ...... very common in theose days you could search for yourself on the IGI go to www.familysearch.org click on Advanced Search scroll down to International Genealogical Index Do be careful of SUBMITTED vs EXTRACTED records. SUBMITTED are entries sent in by members of the Momron church are are not substantiated by documentation. Be very very careful of them, do not add them to your tree unless and until you have managed to verify them EXTRACTED records have been taken from the actual records and are as accurate as any other such records :))) Or try the IGI Batch Numbers that Hugh Wallis set up some years ago. It hasn't been updated for several years, but is still very useful freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~hughwallis/IGIBatchNumbers.htm sylvia
