Title: Roman Catholic Baptisms - Merthyr Tydfil/Dowlais 1850-
Post by: maujai on Friday 28 December 18 16:03 GMT (UK)
I would be grateful for any data about RC baptisms for family 'Dineen/Dinneen/Dinien/Dinane and any other variants of this name. from 1851

Father Bartholomew Dineen (married Ellen Lynch 19/6/1851)
mothers: Ellen Lynch /Ellen Leary

1. Johanna/Hannah - b.abt 1852 ??
2. Charles b. 14 March 1854 (mother Ellen Leary)
3. Daniel b. 20/5/1857 (mother Ellen Leary)
4. Margaret Dineen - b. abt 1862 ?? (my Gt grandmother)

Although the marriage cert shows Bartholomew married an Ellen LYNCH in 1851, the only 2 births certs (Charles & Daniel) I have found both give Ellen LEARY as the mother. I find no records of a death / remarriage. I am hoping church records if available will establish when the baptisms of Johanna and Margaret occurred, their mother's name;  and/or confirm the accuracy of the data on the boys' certs.

Many thanks in advance for any info that might shed light on the anomalies!

Did you have any response from the church or diocese?

Hi,
No reply via email. I'll try to phone directly after the holidays. Apparently, Merthyr library has/used to have a publication with these but I've had no response from them either.

I saw an (old) offer about these RC records on here so thought I'd try again.

Frustrating isn’t it.
I hope you get some help from the church or diocese.
