Does anyone have a copy or can scan a copy of the baptism details for Robert Frederick Marchbanks born on 25 May 1924?

Hi,
As the Church is Church of Ireland, you would need to contact Belfast....

1924 is very recent for baptismal records- you would probably need to contact church directly to explain why you want the record (and perhaps may need to confirm person is deceased).

St.Canice's Kilkenny baptisms up to 1916 are held by the Representative Church Body Library, Churchtown, Dublin 14

so no use to you.

Is there a reason you want the baptism and not the birth cert?
The details needed to order the birth cert are on FamilySearch
https://familysearch.org/search/collection/1408347?collectionNameFilter=false
and a research copy can be ordered for only €4 using the form here

Welcome to rootschat

I wondered the same as Sinann why you require the baptism as the birth was registered.

FTR
It looks as if his parents were
Frederick MARCHBANK and Mildred HOLMES
they married on Oct 22 1919 in Callan LINK #24

There was another child who was born in 1925 and became a nurse
She may still be living so I am not naming her
Her nursing registration gave her address as "The Colonnade, St. Canice's, Kilkenny"

Frederick MARCHBANK died at "The Colonnade, St. Canice's, Kilkenny" in 1956 aged 73 LINK #117

He is on the 1911 census in Kilkenny LINK
at house 15 in John's Quay (Kilkenny No. 2 Urban, Kilkenny)

Can't be certain but think that this is him in 1901 in Dublin with his family as Francis LINK
at house 70 in Booterstown Avenue (Blackrock, Dublin)
noting Father as Robert and a printer and an elder child, Robert, was also a bicycle mechanic

Which would mean that this was his birth LINK #452
This person was baptised Francis William Nassau MARCHBANK on Oct 6 1891 in Booterstown

edited to add
Based on the family in 1911 - LINK
being at house 11 in Parkview Avenue (Rathmines & Rathgar West, Dublin)
Francis is not Frederick as Francis is listed with here with his widowed mother Margaret
Margaret MARCHBANK states that she had nine children of which seven were still alive
There were only eight listed in 1901; the ninth child was Alexander b 1880
HOWEVER, James born 1882 LINK #144 is James Frederick


Mildred HOLMES on the 1911 census LINK
at house 1 in Great Oak (Tullaghanbrogue, Kilkenny)

and on the 1901 census LINK
at house 4 in Greatoak (Tullaghanbrogue, Kilkenny)

which would tie in with this birth on Jan 6 1892 LINK #165

There is a death in Manchester Lancs in 1970 V10e P320 of a Mildred MARCHBANK
that gives her date of birth as 06/01/1892
