I tried this Search..... no John baptized in St Thomas' 1870

I know we don't know first name
but it was to just see state of Bapt register for 1870 !!

Are there Bapt Registers for 1870?

Not online - just 1886-1900 according to what's on their list.

But the definitive COI list shows they do exist but are badly damaged before mid-19th century

Hello Rootschatters,

I am wondering if anyone can advise me, please. My great grandfather was baptised in St. Thomas in 1870, but I cannot find any records for this parish.

Does anyone know if they still exist, and if so where would I find them?

Many thanks in advance.

Nora


Looks like one needs to visit the Library.

Have you tried widening the search years, if he was born in December he may not have been registered until the following year and he may have his year of birth incorrect.

Hello Sinan and Hallmark,

Thank you both for your replies and offer of help. It is much appreciated.

I have tried everything I can think of to try to find this birth record, widening the search area etc, but no luck. Unfortunately, I live in England so cannot get to the library in Dublin to find anything they may have. I think I will have to leave this as a lost cause.

Thanks to all Rootschatters for your help.

Kindest regards,

Nora

have you allowed for him "adjusting his age" to appear older like many did??

Hello Hallmark,
The marriage of Patrick MITCHELL to Margaret McAULEY took place on the 09/09/1903 in the Parish of St James, James Street, Dublin.

On the marriage entry, it states his parent's names as Peter and Mary Mitchell.

I have tried expanding the years in the in my search, but no luck.

Kindest regards,

Nora
