Note 1 The first two Elizabeths were baptised within three months of each other. Even allowing for the babies to be a few months old at baptism, this seems infeasible. I wonder whether the 19 Mar 1645 baptism at North Stoneham was actually into beginning of the year, and not at the end of the year. (In the Julian calendar, the year started on 25 March, but for convenience it was sometimes, incorrectly, taken as April-April.) If this is the case then there is almost exactly nine months between the two baptisms, and the whole thing becomes more likely. It is also possible that it is the same Elizabeth being baptised twice. Presumably the third Elizabeth's date is also incorrect as it is within a few weeks of Arthur's baptism. Note 2 Possibly a brother of Anthony Barfoot of North Stoneham. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
