Thanks Keith.

That's one thing about a birth outside NSW with a baptism in NSW, no place of birth given.

NSW Bap ORGAN EMILY 1481/1835 V18351481 25A GEORGE - MARIA - MD= CofE Dapto; Wollongong

Another odd thing is that although the record is a church baptism it is entered in the index with the year of birth.
