   The Baptist Church Register is a large volume (an ABC Index Book

   actually) with each page divided in half so that the names of two families can be recorded on each page. At the top of each section is the fathers name e.g. Robert Webb and his wife Mary and then the children are listed beneath the parents. In some cases, where the maiden name of the wife is known, then it would be Mary born Smith for example. The first few in the register did not record the maiden name of the mother. Since there are no entry numbers I have used the page numbers instead. The handwriting is fairly good in this register, although sometimes the spelling is suspect! There is no mention of the name of the minister, but by looking at some of the marriage certificates I have identified the handwriting as being that of Rev Alexander Hay.
