This is my 2 X Great Grandfather. Born about 1833 Ireland, i suspect this is not how Riley was spelt. His Fathers name was Owen born abt 1810- died bef 1874 Ireland (on Patricks marriage certificate) again i suspect not how Owen was really spelt. Patrick appears in Gateshead abt 1870 where he married Rosannah Quigley b 1836 Ireland, who im also looking for. I would love to know where they were from. Thank you

Welcome to Ireland Reaching Out!
I searched the subscription site Roots Ireland and found an 1833 baptismal record for a Patrick Reilly with father Owen. As I'm sure you know, Reilly is a very common surname in Ireland. Co. Cavan has the most Reillys but Co. Meath is second. I would treat this record as a lead. You really need to try to determine his mother's maiden name to confirm this record. Are you aware of siblings?
For Rose Quigley, there were four 1835 baptismal records but none in 1836. Can you locate parents names?

Thank you so much for this information. I am not aware of Patricks siblings at this point. However Rosanne quigley's father's name Is James. The birth for her is just an estimate.

Does it say which Church this Baptism record is for?

The RC church is Stamullin which is in eastern Meath just above north Co. Dublin.
