Thanks to everyone who gave me suggestions as to why my ancestor was
baptised in the adjacent parish. I have a lot of new ideas to consider.
Also, some people suggested that the father wanted a particular minister to
baptise the child and I wonder, did each minister go to a number of churches
every Sunday (let's say in the time frame of 1750-1850) in the smaller
parishes. I see references in the OPR to the village school teacher so
there must have been one of those per village but how many parish churches
could a particular minister handle? Did he go to a different one each week?
Thanks, Sandi
