Baptism Records, St. James’, Dublin City, January-June 1856

St. Jame’s Roman Catholic Parish,
Dublin City,
Co. Dublin,
Ireland.


The parish records for St. Jame’s Roman Catholic parish, Dublin City begin on 25th September, 1752.  There are a number of registers for this parish and many of them are poorly legible.  Large numbers of entries are out of chronological order.

I was looking for one particular surname in 1856 and listed below are 192 entries for the first six months of that year.  All spellings are as I read them.  Question marks indicate those words or letters I had a problem with when reading.  The register at this point is in English and a place name is given for most children.

Wm.=Wiliam ; Cath.\Cathr.=Catherine ; Mich./Michl=Michael ; Christr.=Christopher ; Patk.=Patrick ; Margt.=Margaret ; Mathw.=Matthew ;

I have left the entries in order of transcribing and have done nothing to sort the surnames out.
