      I have looked at the original St Germans parish church baptism register
      this morning (P68/1/2) and the baptism took place on 14 August 1757.
      There is however a marginal note against the entry with very small
      writing and this says 'Born 9 Aug 12 at noon'

      I hope this will be of some assistance to you.

      Yours sincerely,
