OK starting again; another set of records to play with;

Possible entry for the bap of my 2xg-grm:

Name: Elizabeth Saunders
Gender: Female
Baptism/Christening Date: 05 Dec 1830
Baptism/Christening Place: St Augustine-the-Less, Bristol, Gloucester, England
Father's Name: John Saunders
Mother's Name: Ann
Indexing Project (Batch) Number: C01086-8
System Origin: England-EASy
Source Film Number: 1596311
Reference Number: item 4 p 275
Collection: England Births and Christenings, 1538-1975

Possible sibling:


Name: Selina Ann Saunders
Gender: Female
Baptism/Christening Date: 01 Jul 1832
Baptism/Christening Place: St Augustine-the-Less, Bristol, Gloucester, England
Father's Name: John Saunders
Mother's Name: Ann
Indexing Project (Batch) Number: C01086-8
System Origin: England-EASy
Source Film Number: 1596311
Reference Number: item 5 p 23
Collection: England Births and Christenings, 1538-1975

another one:

Name: John Saunders
Gender: Male
Baptism/Christening Date: 16 Oct 1825
Baptism/Christening Place: St. Augustine-the-Less, Bristol, Gloucester, England
Father's Name: John Saunders
Mother's Name: Anne
Indexing Project (Batch) Number: C01086-7
System Origin: England-EASy
Source Film Number: 1596311
Reference Number: item 4 p 128
Collection: England Births and Christenings, 1538-1975

There are others in Bristol, parents John and Ann, but I'm focusing on the ones at the same church for the time being.

For ref, others from the pilot site are:

James - bap 25th Dec 1825 church not showing on record (perhaps unlikely following John's bap 2 months earlier?)
George Augustus - bap 23rd Sept 1827 St. Phillip and St. Jacob's
Mary Ann - bap 8th Feb 1829 St. Phillip and St. Jacob's (could be the other girl in the school in 1841!)

No sign of a marriage or death for Selina Ann after 1837.

I checked the Elizabeth Saunders baptisms with fathers called John on the Bristol baptisms CD yesterday, Merry, and the occupation for that one was servant (residence Anchor Lane).

John 1825 looks to have the same father as Selina Ann, as he is a seaman (residence Frogmore Street).
