I helped with this query when it was first on the Harrow Facebook page.

Where were you Carol when we needed you ;D

There's a baptism of Agnes Foley in 1905 indexed on Durham Records Online.
Parents Hugh and Catherine. Abode Newfield, Chester-le-Street.
Presume that means she was C of E.

Death Sep qtr 1914   
Foley,  Catherine age  40   
Chester-le-S.    10a   643

There is no evidence that Agnes stays in the Durham area  :-\

ADDED I looked at online trees for this Agnes yesterday but no one seems to have followed her after 1911

There is a single Agnes Foley in Harrow area in 1939 born 1905. She married in 1946.

Marriages Jun qtr 1946   
Bradshaw    James   
Foley    Agnes   
Stepney    1c   331

You may already have discounted her as I realise she does not match the age 19 but family information is often proved false.

ADDED Possible birth registration
Birth Mar qtr 1905
Foley    Agnes   Mothers maiden surname PIGGFORD     
Chester le S.    10a   578


Getting this birth certificate might help to eliminate her

Death Sep qtr 1914   
Foley,  Catherine age  40   
Chester-le-S.    10a   643

Buried at Pelton Cemetery. Nutfield address.
Performed by John Wm Faraday. There was a Wesleyan minister of that name, don't know if it's him.

Grave register not much help
https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3QHV-L3V4-PKGR

Burial register says buried 5th June, the month is certainly an error.
Grave register says interred 4th July.

The last thing I will share with you is that on the letter from The Adoptions Society to my Nan was that he had been baptised on 1/1/1938 at a church in North Harrow. Alas we have been able to trace this either.

The nearest church to Newquay Cres is in Malvern Ave.

https://www.standrewsroxbourne.org.uk/

They have a contact us page.

If it was a Catholic baptism,the nearest is St John Fisher.

Pete, I noticed you haven't been online for a while,did you find any of our help of any use?

For my part I thought you might be able to check with the two North Harrow/Rayners Lane churches to see if either was where the baptism took place and if they held anymore info?
