When I saw your post, bells started ringing. I really enjoyed reading the school history. But what was a Dame? Was she the headmistress?

I've also been doing some double-checking on FreeReg and thought the following entry was interesting:

Baptism
Laceby St Margaret

Thos. Barker
17 January 1773
Mother: Faith Barker
Notes: A bastard

As Faith married William a month later, could Thomas be another of the couple's children?
