Title: Baaptism Eva COLLINS 1916
Post by: Salty on Tuesday 15 January 19 16:40 GMT (UK)

Wondering if someone would be kind enough to find a Baptism for Eva COLLINS born 24th March 1916 in Sacriston, Co Durham.

Looking for parents names, I believe the mothers maiden name would be DAVIDSON.

TIA
Tom

The General Register Office has the birth registration of
Eva Collins, Jun Quarter 1916, Chester le Street, vol 2A page 730 - mother's maiden name Davidson

There's a marriage registration (FindMyPast) for -
William Collins, Sep Quatrer 1908, Chester le Street, vol 10A page 954 - on the same page Eliza Davidson

Hello Tom,

I think that in 1916 the registration district for Sacriston was Chester-le-Street so it is still likely that the wedding and possible baptism was in Sacriston.  Other RC's might be able to give names of churches. If you had the marriage cert it will name the church which may be the one used for the baptism.
cheers
