Fr Cdn to Eng Translation COMPLETE
« on: Thursday 25 June 09 10:09 BST (UK) »
Could someone please help translate these two baptisms records?

This family has several daughters with similar names and it gets awfully confusing, especially since later they refer to one as Minnie. I can normally make out the dates fairly well but in this case it would help to be sure of the whole translation.

I think the names involved are:
Alice Mary Callaghan, Mary Callaghan
Thomas Callaghan, Mary O'Grady,
John Mulvihill, Johanna Naughten,
Michael Profter, Mary Sullivan

Thanks very much.
