In Response To: Re: CHRISTIAN+CURPHEY+KINVIG ()

Hi - regarding the 'birth' record on the IGI - these are mostly taken from the christening records of the various parishes although some will be attributable to family knowledge. If you have a family bible with a date in June that would fit in very well with a christening in July which should take place fairly quickly if mother and baby are well. I must say I would tend to trust a family bible which would normally be written up as events occurred.
