My great great grandfather, John William Furby was baptised in 1812 at Saint Mary-Le-Bone church near Regents Park. The actual church he was baptised in had been built in 1740 and was close to the site of the present church which was consecrated in 1817. A number of famous people have been baptised or have worshipped at St. Marylebone Parish Church. This includes Lord Byron, Lord Nelson and Charles Dickens.
