I think there may be a wrongly listed register

My 5 x great-grandfather Bridge Frodsham LBZY-ZMD, 1733-1768 has been researched and recorded. I know the baptisms of him and his siblings. His father, Robert Frodsham, was the vicar of the parish of Rostherne, Cheshire, which is where they were baptised. His mother was Catherine Leigh who also had Church of England clergy in her family. So far all is okay.

I have recently had a bunch of hints for this nuclear family and have included a screenshot. The date of baptism is identical, like his siblings but this record is from Lancashire Non-Conformist Records. This is not logical, wrong county, wrong denomination. I have been unable to access this record anywhere but Family Search. I suspect that there is a problem here. All names and dates match but it's completely illogical and unlikely. I can't get to either the archives nor a Family Search Centre and am not LDS.,

Help please

    @Andrea 1954 Since this is an index-only record collection, I think the best thing for you to do would be to dismiss the hint for your ancestor. We have no access to the documents the index came from and so aren't able to determine what sorts of errors might be in it.

    I will dismiss this entire group with full explanation in my reasons. It looks like someone else may have attached part of the group, can quickly be removed with explanation, like I do. As I am rather related to this family, I will have a little dig elsewhere and see if I can find anything else about this, so far a complete puzzle.

    Thanks for your reply and advice 👍
