1f). Robert Dewey born 20Jul1664 and baptised 21Jul1664 Ludgershall
This crop is from Ancestry RobertDeweyBo1664Ludgershall_Ref48101_22021000034_27590-00016Crop.jpg
I interpret this as 'Robert the Sonne of Tho: Dewey ye Younger & margory his wife was borne the 20th day of July was baptized the 21st day.' According to 'Further Steps in Family History' by Eve Laughlin, p63, "Younger" implies the younger of twins, presumably the elder did not survive and so the baptism was 1 day after birth.
