Thanks Merry, that would give him dob of 1765 then, so could fit with my man.

I wonder why freereg transcribed more info than familysearch ?? I'm guessing they had the same register.

Normally when FreeREG transcribers are working from the PR's they transcribe everything that is on the record, but FamilySearch effectively tell their transcribers which particular fields they are to transcribe for each set of records.
