Just Curious

Acts 15-16

So Paul and Silas head to Philippi where they meet Lydia and her "church" down by the river. They preached the gospel and her heart was opened and she was baptized. Since they were down by the river already, it is easy to presume that the baptism occurred in the river. When Paul and Silas were later jailed and subsequently miraculously released, the jailer came to Christ. He and his whole household were baptized. Just curious if there is any reason to believe that they went down to the river versus sprinkling or pouring, and how old were his children? Hmmm.
