Nicholas' Church, Great Vaniiouih, ' Edward J, Lupson, pp. 132, 13^ Birth and Baptism. 1 1 5 born and baptized Oct. 24, 1731, by the midwife at the Font, called a boy, and named by the god- father, Thomas, but proved a girl !' Careless blunders of this kind were, indeed, of common occurrence, and often gave rise to serious com- plications. It must be remembered that in former years, if there was any likelihood of the child dying before a priest could be procured, the mid- wife was bound to bapt...ize it, and curates were enjoined ' to instruct midwives openly in the Church in the words and very form of baptism, to the intent that they may use them perfectly, and none other. ' In the sixteenth century it was not uncommon for two or three members of a family to bear the same name, and the following extract from the register of Beby, Leicestershire, is an example of a custom which must have caused endless con- fusion in large families : ' 1559. Item. 29*^^ day of August was John and John Sicke, the children of Christopher and Anne, baptized.
