Rats, I've just come back from Northumberland Archives. If you'd posted this in the morning you could have had an answer now!
I won't be there again for another 2 or 3 weeks but if you still need to know by then I'll check it out for you.

Barbara,
If the baptism is not found in registers of St Paul's, Choppington ( C of E ), consider..
*St Cuthbert's. Bedlington, the " mother" church before St Paul's got independence.
*If the Irish surname suggests R.C, baptism would have been St Robert's (once St Bede's) Morpeth, or St Cuthberts, Cowpen. St Bede's of Bedlington did not start until middle 1870s.
Michael Dixon.

Hi Michael,
Thanks very much. Not sure about which church, as the mother married twice in a register office, and Hannah married in the Parish church. Longbenton.
Catherine Keaney/McKeany had two children while unmarried, the first was Jane Ann Keeney b. 9 Jul 1865, Seaham Colliery, then Hannah Keeney 1867 Choppington Colliery. Catherine married Nicholas Weatherall 1868 at the register office, Morpeth.
When Hannah married she was Hannah Weatherall Keeney, father named as Nicholas Weatherall, and curiously, there was a note made on the certificate:
"Note from Vicar Ernest S. Grover: Hannah and Jane Ann Keeney have the name 'Weatherley', it appears, only by use, it being their mother's married name from a date after their births".
So I was interested to know what would appear in the parish register for Hannah's baptism, as it may be that Nicholas was indeed father to both girls, and not just stepfather

Hi Barbara,
I made a spur of the moment trip to Woodhorn this afternoon but regret to say that Hannah does not appear in Choppington records - I checked right through to 1869. In fact there are no girls called Hannah in that period of time.
I also looked at Bedlington with the same result.
Also, as I was in Newbiggin and Woodhorn parishes for the same time scale I checked them just in case but no luck.
There wasn't time to follow Michael's RC suggestion - maybe another time....
