Liz - I can't see Clara's birth on Qld bdm. Have searched from 1840-1850.  Perhaps I should pack it in for the night   It is Ipswich Qld and not England [as it was then]

Nothing for McCarthy before 1854 on the Qld Indexes.  Wonder what year civil registrations were introduced.  If before then may only be baptism records.  Don't know much about Qld....should make an effort....tomorrow

Cheers

Hi cando
Yes there is a baptism on Clara what i would like is anything on John (father) mary Quinn (mother)
I was hoping i did not have to pay to get baptism but it looks like i do.I was charged $25 to tell me yes there is a baptism then asked for another $ 25 for the document .
  Have marriage on Clara aged 16yrs in 1863.

Liz where did you enquire about Clara's baptism...that seems a bit pricey. 

Do you have Clara's marriage cert ?  In which state did Clara marry - can't see anything in Qld in 1863.

Cheers

Civil registration in Qld started at separation (I think) 1859. The records prior to that are church records and are on the NSW bdm (location Moreton Bay) as well as on the Qld list. Thus  if on the bdms you can get a copy for $10 from a NSW transcription agent.
