B Steed, Thank you for indexing batch: South Africa—Church of the Province of South Africa, Parish Registers, 1801–2004 [Part C][MSDM-6HK].
We see that the age is given in the first entry instead of the birth date. Because we cannot determine if the person had her birthday before or after the baptism date, we cannot accurately determine the correct birth year. Please mark it blank. Those who find this record by using her name, parents names or location will be able to make assumptions based on what they see in the record.
We appreciate your service!
