Help Reading a Baptism Register
« on: Tuesday 03 January 17 13:09 GMT (UK) »
I'm still looking for a John Mullaney born c1832 in Roscommon. This link contains a better option than the one I had before. I was advised that it was likely that John would have named his first child after his Father. I read this register as fathers name John. It now transpires that John the son named his first son John in Stockport after he emigrated to England in the very early 1850's. Unfortunately John died aged 0 soon after birth, which is why I missed it first time around. I am hoping that someone here can help me read the whole entry. I am looking at the 27th June 1832.

Any advice, encouragement or help greatly appreciated with this one, especially the mothers name.

I see John de John Mullany & Cath F[G]uller[n] [sponsors names not immediately legible possibly Mr Mullany & Margt something - looks to start 'Fl' like the Flynn above].

I'm struggling with the Mother's name. I think the male sponsor may be John Mullany.

2nd line down in snippet. Might mother's name begin with 'K', they look very florid in 2 lines below for a possible 'Keaney'...

The two central letters look like a double 'l' to me. If you compare the double 'l' in Mullany to what's in the mothers name, I can see a similarity there.

I agree, hence my first suggestion. I can also see it could be 'Fallon'  :-\

I've started to convince myself that it's Fallon too.
