KEEFE/O'KEEFE, Baptised 18/02/1827, Cheltenham
« on: Thursday 07 March 24 13:51 GMT (UK) »
Hello,

James KEEFE/O'KEEFE was baptised on 18/02/1827 in St. Gregory's RC Church, Cheltenham, his parents being Daniel and Mary.

Could someone kindly confirm his exact name in the baptism records, if at all possible.

Thank you for your help.

Apparently the Gloucestershire Family History Society transcription records the name as Kief.

Thank you, ShaunJ,

"KIEF" was the name transcribed, but it appears later that was only one of many variations.
