    [Note: this loose leaf has 5 baptisms and one each marriage (Feb 1863) and burial (Oct 1862), all unnumbered. The baptism for Honorah has Nov 1862; the prior one has Oct 1862; following Honorah is one "same day," then one that has Nov 1863. Based on her brother Williams's birth date and the 1871 census record, the birth and baptism year for Honorah should certainly be 1863.]
