Kildare baptism look up please !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
« on: Monday 19 September 05 00:29 UTC (UK) »
Help I,m completely Stumped My Gt Grandfather Was Called James Elliott he was Born about 1858 Chalerden Ireland  according to the 1871  Census of Rotherham West Yorkshire I cann ot find Chalderden Anywhere So the Nearest Place I have found is Castledillon Kildare I wonder if someone could have a look round this time to see if they can see his baptism  I have no other idea where he could have been born I,m assuming he had a really strong Accent and when he spoke to the census enumerater it sounded like Chalerden  any help apprecited  his parents were Patrick Elliott And Bridget Elliott nee McGarry

Hei Aitnax,

Have you tried this site ? http://www.seanruad.com
I feel there is no way that Castledillon could sound like Chalderden. There is a possibility the name may have been given to the Census enumerator in the Irish language in which case you need an Irish linguist to have a look at this one. Most Irish towns have names in both Irish and English on signposts.

I'm guessing it's Charlestown. There are 7, the biggest in Cork and Louth.

Hi Aitnax

Why not try the following:-

www.irishgaelictranslator.com

www.irish-sayings.com

Another tip:  Search through the 'Irish property pages' for (Kildare) which will give the names of towns and villiages. EG

www2.myhome.ie

Good luck
