Hi,
Can anyone offer any help please.
I'm looking for a baptism record for Catherine Leary b1848/50 Ireland. Pretty certain her father's name was Patrick Leary mother was also called Catharine b1814 Ireland.
I have just looked at 1911 census living in Lancashire Catherine b1848 place of birth is given as Modlin Town Co Wexford Resident. Does anyone know where this is or if Modlin Town still exists today 
Thanks Ladyhawk

Monamolin, Gorey Monaleehill Monalee Monfin, Enniscorthy Mountfin

Is this the same entry that was posted to the Rootsweb Wexford Mailing List ? I believe a number of people who might be expected to know the area suggested Maudlin.

there's actually a place called 'Maudlintown' in Co. Wexford, it appears on Google maps - its very close to the town of Wellingtonbridge.

Thanks both for your quick reply and help.
Shane I think your right and it's Maudlintown Co. Wexford but has been heard/transcribed phonetically as Modlintown Co. Wexford on 1911 census.
Mary there's a strong possibility that one of the last three is correct as Catherine Leary b1850.
Thanks again, another step closer.

If you contact Rev. Jim Fegan Adm, Bride Street Church Wexford Town to see if he has an entry of your ancestors marriage in the church register. Bride Street is the Parish Church for Maudlintown in Wexford town.
