Baptism Parishes Cork City & Area - according to street?
« on: Saturday 04 June 16 17:17 BST (UK) »
Hello,

I am looking to find the baptism records of my grandfather & his siblings, I have found all the civil birth certs so I know their dates of birth but I would like to see the baptism sponsors as it gives more information on the relatives of my Great Grandparents. I checked on roots ireland cork and no records are listed there, my Great Grandparents moved around a lot so I am seeking if anyone would know the correct parish to check with for where each child was born:

1901 - Airhill, Glanworth - Christopher Woods
1903 - Hibernian Buildings, Cork City - Denis Woods
1906 - North Main Street, Cork City - Mary (May) Woods
1908 - South Main Street, Cork City - John Woods
1909 - Moore Street, Cork City - Helena Woods
1911 - Wycherly's Terrace, Cork City - Possible Helena was baptised while living here

It's been bugging me how to work this out, than I though of putting the street names into Irish Genealogy, to find what church result would show up.
2 results for Wycherley Terrace both South Parish
22 for Moore st. All SS Peter and Paul
52 Baptisims South Main St. All South Parish
36 of 37 Baptisims North Main St. SS Peter and Paul
26 Baptisims Hibernian Buildings South Parish
