Christening Date US, Alaska—Church Records, 1816–1970[MQGK-FQH]

Can we use the Christening date for the Birthdate - we know infants are usually christened within days or weeks of birth? US, Alaska—Church Records, 1816–1970[MQGK-FQH]

    Baptism and Christening are used interchangeably in the Christian Church, so I would put those dates in the Baptism fields.
