Clepington Road birth/baptism 1909
« on: Thursday 14 July 11 16:07 BST (UK) »
My father  JOHN LEUCHARS HOLMES was born in Clepington Road.
The middle name has always been a mystery, but a recent suggestion that it may be from a godparent has me wondering.
Can you tell me where the nearest or most likely RC church would be for a baptism in 1909 ?
I've tried SP with no success.
Many thanks
Judy

if you type in the post code into streetmap.co.uk the big arrow should point to
the exact location of 341

Thank you Ev. I have seen this before but I am really looking to find the local RC Church of the period.

Hi joopow

If you have a look here it may give you an idea "spoke to she who must be obeyed" she thinks St Peter and Paul in the hilltown,

Say thanks to the good lady, we always know best. !!
