Member Since: March 2005 Posts: 15 Send Message	Thank you so much Margaret. that does sem to be William's christening. I think the Thorne/ flower marriage is there to confuse us though. That does seem to be Charles' baptism. I just need to find Williams birth GRO ref. now. Many thanks again for all of your help.
