Early birth/baptism records, Douglas, Bremer, Iowa 1870-1880

BENNETT, MCCRACKEN

Hi there, My great grandfather Samuel Bennett was born in Douglas, Bremer, Iowa in 1874, his brother Robert Bennett born 1872 and a sister Lizzie Bennett was born 1876. My great great grandparents John and Margaret (McCracken) Bennett were living on a farm with Robert and John McCracken in 1870, according to the census. The family had returned to County Down Northern Ireland by 1880 as the next child was born there at that time. I wonder if there are likely to be any baptism records of the early settlers in Douglas? They were Presbyterians and they almost certainly would've baptized their children. I would appreciate any insights, I live in Sweden, born in New Zealand. Thanks. Sandra Bennett.
