Baptisms, Donington in Holland, 1866-1870

Here's the latest batch of baptisms in Donington in Holland  in Lincolnshire that I've skimmed through trying to find one family.  As I've gone through, looking at the original parish register images on Lincstothepast I've jotted down every surname, to make sure I am doing a proper job in my search - and, then, because it's a shame to waste it, I'm posting the surnames here!

These are simply how the names quickly looked to me as I skimmed down each page looking for one family - so spellings are to be taken with a pinch of salt.  I'm confident of most of them - and so if you can spot something that's close to what you're after, it might just be the baptism you need to complete your set - and you can just go to Lincstothepast and see the parish registers for yourself.

Parish Register Notes: 

Some of the notes scribbled around the edges of the pages - this vicar does like his notes!
1866: There's a note in the margin alongside the baptism of George Pepe Smith to say he is 3 years old.  Baptised on 6 December, with his sister Lorna Jane. Son/dau of Robert & Martha Smith, labourer of Northorpe.
1867: Note in the margin is unreadable unless you're determined. It is against the baptism of Elizabeth daughter of Proctor and Sarah.  It looks like it says see .... May 9 1869, so I'm guessing the vicar's spotted an error at a later date that needs correcting.
1869: There is a note alongside the baptism of Albert Langton Constable. This error was certified in the presence of ... and the vicar's name's been changed/crossed off on the register.
1869: Note in the entry itself says that Edward Henry Manton, son of Edward & Mary was 3 years old when baptised alongside his brother Alfred Manton who was 11 months old.
1870: There is a note alongside the baptism of Mary Hickinbottom, daughter of James & Mary. NB Mary Hickinbottom was born 14 May 1869.
1870: Note in margins about Chessington. It seems to be a long note about where she'd lived. It's not clear why it's there, but if Chessington's who you are after, you'll be willing to spare the time to fathom it out!

It's very slow and it seems never ending!  I have found few entries of the family I am after.  I've got the "essential" one though, now just trying to collect the set.
