Now either I am daft or same child was baptised twice ! St. John the Baptist and St. James Clerkenwell, maybe it was to keep both families happy. xxhugxx

Yes, it's definitely Broker - easier to read on the second version of it.

It's all the same children listed on both - maybe St John the Baptist was a chapel or sub-church of St James?
