Cornelius Donovan Blayney COMPLETED WITH THANKS
« on: Thursday 11 December 14 07:07 GMT (UK) »
I'm trying to help a friend, who lives in South Africa, and is a descendant of Cornelius Donovan Blayney.

From Family Search we have the following baptisms of children born on the Isle of Man.  However, I would be most grateful if someone could verify the entries from the parish records themselves - regarding occupation, etc.  I'm assuming that Isle of Man parish records are similar to the ones in England, and occupations and residence are entered for baptisms.

10 March 1832 - Ramsey - Esther, daughter of Cornelius Donovan Blayney and Margaret.
12 January 1834 - St Barnabas, Douglas - Robert, son of Cornelius Blayney and Margaret.
22 October 1835 - St Barnabas, Douglas - Mary Jane, daughter of Cornelius Donovan Blayney and Margaret.

Many thanks in advance.

Not seeing Esther at the moment!

Snap, Shaun!!


If you feel it's important, I could check the original PR's at the Manx Museum later today?

Thank you so much gentlemen.  I'd only seen the entries via Ancestry.  Your help is much appreciated.

All the best
