Born 10 Oct 1825 Fore Street, West Teignmouth, Devon, England - From baptism register - but is this birth or baptism?
Baptised Zion Chapel, Teignmouth, Devon, England - Elizabeth is shown as born Oct 10 1825, baptised with the date above dittoed: March 13 1825!
However, the writing is different from all the other baptisms on March 13 1825, and the name of the Minister also different. I suspect the Minister didn't look carefully at the column headings - so is the date given actually the baptism date?
