The 9^th entry on Page 57 of the "Baptisms - Burials 1796-1812" record book of the Penistone church, documents the baptism of Charles, son of Jeremiah Wainwright and Ann, his wife, (formerly Wood), on October 6, 1800. The resister adds "born 5 Instant", which the IGI records as October 5, 1800.

Note that this also documents the marriage of Jeremiah Wainwright and Ann Wood.

Entry No. 426 on Page 142 of the "Marriages 1813-1834" record book of the Penistone church, documents the marriage of Charles Wainwright and Rebecca Smith on August 18, 1823.

Entry No. 1555 on Page 195 of the "Baptisms 182-1828" record book of the Penistone church, documents the baptism of William Wainwright, son of Charles Wainwright and Rebecca [Smith]. of Thurlstone on December 25, 1823. The birth date is also documented as November 30, 1823. His father's occupation is recorded as "Wheelwright"

Note that Charles is reported to be a wheelright of Thurlstone, (later reports show him to be a carpenter of Mill House).

Charles is reported as a carpenter of Mill House. The birth date is not documented. Her father's occupation is reported as "Carpenter".

Note that the mother's first name is recorded as "Alice".
This appears to only be an error since the father's full name, place of living and occupation all match, along with the mother's last name and no conflicting time periods between previous and subsequent children. We also have a listing for Ann, born that year as daughter of Charles Wainwright and Rebecca Smith, in separate research, done by William J. Wainwright in 1965 on a visit to relatives then living near there.
