Hi everyone, hope you are all keep well.

I have Elizabeth daughter of William & Elizabeth.Bond baptised 24/09/1802 Walcot St Swithins Somerset.

The line directly underneath is Lucy daughter of William & Elizabeth Bond baptised the same day but it also says born April 3rd 1794.

I cannot find a birth for Lucy so any help would be much appreciated.

Thanking you in advance

Lesley

You can’t get birth info before July 1837, when civil registration began

The only info prior to that date is baptisms.

Multiple baptisms were quite regular occurrences

You're very lucky that the vicar recorded the d.o.b
