Cannot find this baptism on Ancestry- just one Hanwell - a long way away - in 12/91813. No baptism on FMP

There were a lot of things going on in the area at that sort of time but the main work for a navvy in 1850 was the New Cut, a realignment of the river.
I was always told that there were hundreds of navvies who dug it by hand but I have yet to find hard evidence for how it was actually carried out!
I could not find his children & wife in 1851C - but now found them in Brackley Workhouse
