Is it the baptism of Jane or John Ennis?
« on: Tuesday 12 January 21 13:01 GMT (UK) »
I am confused – how can I work out whether Jane or John is correct/most likely for this baptism?

Ancestry has a register (St Andrew’s church is in Westland Road)

https://www.ancestry.co.uk/imageviewer/collections/6068/images/41885_b154581-00456?treeid=&personid=&hintid=&usePUB=true&usePUBJs=true&_ga=2.11226228.1381905130.1610222558-35260650.1605297595&pId=208975
 
With the same entries in different handwriting it is a different register, except this time it is Jane – not John, but all other details seem the same!

Thanks for reading and hope someone has an idea?

On the Irish Genealogy site it recorded as Jane - the original page has not been imaged yet.

Excellent, thank you dublin1850 - that helps me rule her out as my Jane Ennis, so narrowing down my choices  :)
