Anglican baptisms in RC Ireland?

[MarkyP]

would your Coastguard ancestor be surname Reymond ?

Yes it would, well Raymond :-)

I'm doing some research on behalf of someone. I've now actually found one of the baptisms using the one of the links provided, and that was in Donegal. My other question is about burials, given that they probably wouldn't make a long journey to the nearest Anglican church with a dead person (or would they) would they be buried at the nearest church?

Thanks for your help so far.

Mark.

Pretty certain that George Reymond/Raymond was in that Lackin/Lackin station near to Ballycastle Co. Mayo. The reference to Sligo in the CG records is the port, rather than the county the station was in.

If I'm following that correct person he was previously posted at Rathlin Island, and before that Greencastle.

The coastguard records I have show the station as Lackin, the port as Sligo and the district as Ballycastle. There were 4 baptisms of which I have just found the last one in 1840 and the address given was Teelin West, Kilcar, Co. Donegal.

I'm getting confused now!!!!

I see on here that he is mentioned in Lacken, Killala - a spot I walk by every time I am in Mayo!

There are local graveyards on this very interesting site: http://goldenlangan.com/headstones.html

.....This particular officer was stationed at Lacken in County Sligo from 1833 to 1841 and had 4 children while he was out there.

You might be just before the start of available baptism records though, as I only see baptisms going back to 1842 listed for the parish of Dunfeeny. (The parish is sometimes listed as Ballycastle Co. Mayo, as that's where the parish church was)

There's no mention of historical death/burial records for the parish on the RCB list.

Shane can I ask where you are getting his coastguard records from?

dont get this part ... what parish is listed for this, are you certain that's the same Raymond family ?

If they lived near Ballycastle Co. Mayo, then I think they would be just too early for available records.

Could it be that his wife visited/ stayed in Donegal for that last child.

I would also add that Killala is close by so could be a possibility.
