As Prax said and also Chris Hall said in the other tHread, I dont need some historic time line to be secure in the Apostolic message. If I were the first to believe this since the Apostles, I would still be secure in my being right!
I would like to see if we could actually find real evidence of post AD300 of people being Baptized in Jesus Name and also (but not necessarly connected to) HGB.

there may be little historical evidence of people being baptized either way before that date or after. What we have is people saying how TO baptize people and for that we might find both before that date such as the Didache which has echoes of both "formulas" I think. And I do agree though that there probably were some documents favorable to our view point that did not survive history for whatever reason, including the victors "burning" them...but it's irrelevent
