Help needed to find a baptism 1819-Shomarn? Burke
« on: Saturday 08 March 14 21:15 GMT (UK) »
Hello,

I came across the entry below on a subscription site and am looking to verify it somewhere else. It looks to me as though the child's name has been transcribed incorrectly because I can find no record of the Latin name Shomarn.  I had a look in some other places but couldn't find it.

Is anyone able to find this entry for me somewhere?

Thank you!

Name: Shomarn Burke

Parish: Gallen

Diocese: Ardagh and Clonmacnois

County: Mayo

Baptism Date:22 Dec 1819

Father's Name:Joannis Burke

Mother's name:Sarah

Sponsor Witness 1:Jacobo Dean

Sponsor Witness 2:Margarita Burke

I dont think Co. Mayo is correct for that diocese - it would be more Offaly, Westmeath direction.
