Hello Forum
First post for me so here goes.
While I was trolling through a mircofilm of baptism records recently, I noticed that the record I was interested in had a note in the date column, "Privately" underlined above the date. As I haven't viewed that many records does anyone know if private baptisms were common or what circumstances would lead to the comment.
A great forum, still working my way through
