Christening Record of Charles Law (1832-1862)

Charles Law was born December 19, 1832 in South Hiendley, a small town in the West Riding of Yorkshire. There is no record of his birth--this was still several years prior to the beginning of civil registration and the Church records only provide his christening information. Charles was christened January 27, 1833. Here is a copy of the record:

This image comes from the Bishops' transcripts of the Felkirk parish records. The originals are in the Borthwick Institute in York. We learn from this record that Charles, was the son of Isaac and Mary Law. He was christened on January 27, 1832. The parents lived in South Hiendley. Isaac was a cordwainer (a shoemaker). I can't quite make out the beginning of the curate's name, but the "bachcroft" is the ending portion of the name.
