Notes for Jemima Jones
She married in Bishopsgate London so let’s assume she was born in London. FindMyPast has three baptisms in London in 1754 give or take 2 years:
1. Jemima dau. of Justice and Eliz. Jones, baptised 11 Feb 1753 in St Like Old ST church, Finsbury, London.
2. Jemima, dau. of Peter and Jema. Jones, baptised in Saint Botolph without Aldgate, London on 30 June 1754
3. Jemmima, dau. of Stephen and Jemmima Jones, baptised in Saint Botolph without Aldgate, London on 27 Nov 1757.
All three came from Family Search so I got the fuller details from there. I have no idea which, if any, might be her baptism.
