Does anyone have access to the baptism redords for St Nicholas, Boldon, Durham? I have been trying to find the full information on the baptism of my gt grandfather, Robert Fenton, baptised at St Nicholas on 22/3/1840. Robert was born on 28/1/1840 in East Boldon, the son of Peter Fenton (b. c1785) and Frances Emmerson (b. between 1797 & 1811). Peter and Frances married at St Nicholas on 28/7/1828.
Other siblings, all born in East Boldon, were:
John b. c1831
Robert bapt 5/1/1833 Buried 10/10/1836
Elizabeth bapt 22/10/1837
Peter bapt 12/7/1843
I am after the names of godparents on any or all of the baptisms in the hope of finding more about Peter and Frances. Plus to add the godparents to my gt grandfather's information. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Diane
