What an interesting query. I know where and when I was christened but have no idea how to find any record. i am certain it wouldn't be online though. My thought would be to go to the archive centre and have a look there. Very tricky if you don't know the church.

I would'nt think you would find your christening on line anyway. All my family including myself come from Walthamstow and I am pretty sure my gran would have been baptised as her other 14 siblings were but she was the only one born there the others Islington, still waiting for it to come on line and that was in 1904. Walthamstow came under Essex then rather than London

are you looking on ancestry? I think baptisms on there only go up to 1906
