Title: Ronald Ernest McDonnell
Post by: Jane101 on Thursday 16 February 17 13:19 GMT (UK)

Hi - I need to find out whether my late Father was a baptised Catholic in connection with funeral arrangements. He was born on 28th April 1922 in the District of Holborn. There has been a previous topic re his Grandparents (John McDonnell and Lucy Cook) however there are no details of which church they were married in which might give us a clue. We would therefore like to find out where he was christened/baptised, where his Grandparents were married and also where his parents (Roland McDonnell and Emily Appleyard) were married. Grateful for any help please. 

Thanks

Hi
Roland John Mc Donnell and Emily Florence Appleyard married at St Andrews Lambeth 31.10.1907.
I'm assuming it's Cof E.
Grandparents seem to have married 10.2.1883 Cheriton Kent.Not sure what church but there is a roman catholic church St Joseph's in the parish.No harm in asking the vicar to take a look.
