For “Baptized” 28 APR 1696 of Stephen Maple

"Stephen Maple - Baptism 28 April 1696 - Ickham, Kent, England - Parents Stephen, Sylvester"

The parents named here, Stephen and Sylvester, match this person's existing parents in the tree exactly - Stephen Maple (5118) and Sylvester Jeffery (4334), married 1688 - and Sylvester is a distinctive enough female forename to make the match secure. This corrects both the birth year (recorded 1694) and the birthplace (recorded Kingston): the Kingston register has NO Maple baptism after 1666 and no Maple burial after 1668, while his father married at Ickham in 1688 and was buried there in 1728. Birth is entered as ABT 1696 because 28 Apr 1696 is the baptism, not the birth.
