[Clincher]

Essex Record Office has a series of Roman Catholic records with the reference D/K which you can view online at SEAX. At first sight, at least, those archives do not seem to promise much and this seems the most promising:

What is the on-line address of SEAX?? Cripper

It's http://seax.essexcc.gov.uk
If you click on 'Guest' and then enter 'D/K' in the box 'Document Reference' you should then get 3 pages of what RC records are available at Essex RO.
Re-reading my first message I realise it could give the impression that you can actually access the records online but unfortunately that is not the case.
