I am searching for the baptism of Sarah Ann Wood whose birth was registered at Wortley in the December quarter of 1856. Her parents were Isaac and Sarah Wood (nee Stevenson). Any help would be appreciated.
Using a combination of GRO INDEX and our baptisms over to the left it looks like Sarah Ann's sisters Fanny 1848 and Mary 1852 were baptised at Wadsley Church. They had Mmn Stevenson and mother Sarah and father Isaac (labourer).

It looks like a third sibling, Lucy Wood b 1864 mmn Stevenson was baptised age 14 at Wadsley, see baptisms over to left. But thereis no sign of baptisms for Sarah Anne, or brothers Harvey and Isaac. So they baptised their first 2 chhildren xhortly after birth, missed the next 3 and their 6th child at age 14, perhaps at her own request.

Margaret, I need to correct my earlier message. HARVEY Wood IS CLEARLY NOT ONE OF isaac and Sarah Ann's children.
He is actually the son of Thomas Wood and Ann (Hannah) nee STEPHENSON, who married in 1849. THE GRO index says Harvey's mmn was STEVENSON, an easy mistake to make.
