MemoLocation and date fit well but source of this birth unknown. A possible alternative is a Jonathan Atmore baptised in King’s Lynn at St Nicholas on 14 Sep 1789 & born on 7 Jun 1789. King’s Lynn is a little remote from his place of marriage however Jonathan’d parents were Jonathan & Mary which bit well with John’s death record parents named as John & Mary.
