Hi all
I'm having trouble reading this entry in the Ireland Roman Catholic Parish Baptisms from 30 October 1817. The mother's name looks like Maria (Latin form of Mary?) but I can't make out the rest of it.
Would really appreciate some help.
Thanks
Tony

Which parish is it?

It's Ballymore Eustace Wicklow and Kildare.
Thanks

Bottom right
Father begins with D but not sure after that, mother Maria but no surname
Michael Quinn and ? Byrne.
Could the father be Daniel? One site gives the Latin as Daniele
-
I’m finding it hard to see the first name as Eliza, despite the transcription.
It may start with E, but it may end ...lia.
I think the father’s name is some version of Dionisius = Denis
E[...]lia[?] Murray f(ili)a Dionitii[?] & Mariæ SS
Michaele Quinn & Rosa Byrne
E[...]lia[?] Murray daughter of Denis[?] & Mary, sponsors
Michael Quinn & Rose Byrne
-
Could it be Caelia instead of Eliza? Is that even a name? Is it a form of Celia?
-
Or even Carlia or Corlia but I like Caelia (from Dublin1850) as an option.
