Hello, I'm writing to ask for transcription assistance from persons who have more experience than I do at reading Catholic Church Baptism registers. The entry in question is from Milltown, Westmeath, a baptism of May 30, 1840. The image of this record is attached (see left column, just above the page break where June entries begin). Could anyone please take a stab at reading the names in this entry that may be part some of my ancestors?

Thank you,

Patrick Gannon

  • Patrick, Perhaps you might let us know the names of the couple you are looking for, as well as the name of the child. Thanks.
