LDS record transcriptions: Poulton le Sands and Adlington in Lancashire

Cross-posted to 2 groups.

I've been doing some research into families in Morecambe, Lancashire,
a town that was formed out of three villages of Poulton-le-Sands, Bare
and Torrisholme in 1902.

I've found quite a number of baptisms of these families recorded in
the LDS indexes as having taken place in Adlington as well as in
Poulton, on the same date. Google tells me that from Morcambe to
Adlington takes 50 min via the M6 and that they are 40,3 miles apart,
so it seems improbable that all these families would have their
children baptised in Morecambe (where they lived) and rush off to
Adlington to have them baptised again on the same day. 

I'll make a note of this in FamilySearch, but thought a warning here
wouldn't go amiss. Someone seems to have misfiled a Poulton register
under Adlington.
