For “Baptised” 1 MAY 1785 of Elizabeth Lenton

Elizabeth Lenton, Christening 1 May 1785, Sutton, Cambridgeshire, England; Father Thomas Lenton; Mother Elizabeth

Search-result row (principal name; christening date and place; parents) read from the signed-in FamilySearch search API on 2026-09-04. The same collection also indexes an Elizabeth Lenton christened 23 May 1778 at Sutton to Thomas & Elizabeth (ark NYWS-ZX6): an earlier child of the same name, presumably deceased. Parents are not added to the tree — the link between this christening and the Croydon woman is the tree's own, uncited.

For “Baptised” 23 JUL 1815 of Benjamin Saville

Benjamin Savell | England, Births and Christenings, 1538-1975 | Christening 23 July 1815 | Hatfield Heath, Essex | Birth 17 November 1814 | Parents John Savell, Rebecca

The same event in a second FamilySearch collection, fields as labelled. This one names the PLACE, Hatfield Heath in Essex, which the non-conformist index row does not. Hatfield Heath is a hamlet in Hatfield Broad Oak parish, in the far west of Essex on the Hertfordshire border, and it adjoins Matching — the birthplace given on the Ancestry member tree that WikiTree Saville-68 cites. Two collections indexing one register is not two independent witnesses; it is one record read twice, and is treated as such.

For “Christened” 22 DEC 1839 of Harriet Jane Meaker

Name Harriet Jane Meaker | Sex Female | Father's Name George Meaker | Mother's Name Lucy Ann | Event Type Christening | Event Date 22 Dec 1839 | Event Place High Ham, Somerset, England, United Kingdom

Quoted in the record's own field order. The christening, so the birth is dated ABT DEC 1839 rather than to the day. It names her parents George Meaker and Lucy Ann, who are created in the companion proposal; the father agrees with the England Marriages extraction of her 1863 marriage AND with her NSW death registration sixty-two years later.
