Hello'
I would be grateful for some advice concerning 3 letters which seem to connect a surname.
Christopher Moore ats Rowland, the son of John Moore ats Rowland, was baptised at North Tawton, Devon on 30th September 1694.
Christopher Moore ats Rowland married Jane Jerrett at North Tawton on 24th July 1720.
Their daughter Elizabeth Moore ats Rowland appears to have been baptised twice at North Tawton; initially on 29th August 1721 then again on 4th March 1723.
I am a little confused as to what ats, if I've read it correctly, means. Also as to why Elizabeth was christened twice at the same church.
Any help would be much appreciated
Kind regards.
