Baptism: William Lloyd (1831-????)

On this day 30 October 1831, which was a Sunday, William Lloyd was baptised in St Martin, Haverfordwest, Pembrokeshire, Wales. William is Dermot's 3rd great uncle.

 John and Jane (Higgon) Lloyd were William's parents and the 3rd great grandparents of Dermot. 

As you can see there is very little information given on this baptism record and each row has 2 entries. I have not seen this before.

The transcription reads:

30 October, William son of John and Jane Lloyd

Baptism: Bertha Taylor (1885-1925)

 On this day, 16 October 1885, which was a Friday, my great grandmother Bertha Taylor was baptised.

The entry gives her parents as John Herbert and Mary Ann Hannah Taylor and their place of residence as Hollington. John's occupation is given as quarryman.

By the side and very difficult to read are the names of the godparents, I cannot find who the 2 with the last name of Taylor are, but the 3rd one is John Herbert's older sister Caroline (Taylor) Woodroffe.
