Hi, I need some help with Charlwood/Ifield/Capel records. I find clear baptismal records in Charlwood for my grandmother\s grandfather Benjamin Arnold in 1819 and his sisters Sarah (1817) and Susan (1821) as well as a marriage certificate for his parents John Arnold and Mary C/Gapon slightly too close to Sarah's birthday for respectability;).
The record on Ancestry really looks like a G for Gapon but there are a number of Capons in the town. Am I seeing the handwriting incorrectly? Also, I don't find them in the 1841 census but they reappear in 1851 in Charlwood (John and Mary). Benjamin is clear but I find no trail of Susan or Sarah. Anyone see anything I can't??
Thanks,
Susan
