His father was Edward Haylock. I would like to track down the record of Charles' baptism, so far elusive. Charles' first wife was Hannah Baxter who married Charles in 1832 and died in 1838. Hannah was born ca. 1811, but not known where or who her parents were. Any help with a baptism record etc would be greatly appreciated. Charles married another Baxter, Mary in 1838. Not known whether Hannah and Mary were related.
