Shane Ive searched through the Griffiths V Site for Johnson and I remember been told that sometimes the spelling might be different like adding a T which is  Johnston well on my gt grandmother s marriage cert  to Richard Bowes their addresses were given as Tenter Fields(Lane )  1 & 2  that was 1884 well on the Griffiths V Site 1854 1 & 2 Tenter Lane  the person living at those addresses were Anne Johnston who was landlord to many of the houses in that area.  When my gt gt grandmother died it was said John Johnson left his daughter Ellen with his sister and as we have been looking for info on John  maybe  he  did stay in that area is there anyway of finding out if Anne Johnstone was related to Ellen

Hi Shane
I just want to know how do i find out my gt grandfathers Richard Bowes  mother's maiden name as ive got the year  he was born 1862.  He  was a house painter on the 1911 dublin census  his fathers name was Timothy Bowes but ive tried the geneology ie church site but no luck there. He married my gt grandmother Ellen Johnson in 1884 in the church St Catherine but im trying to just get Richards mother name so i can move on with my search . Shane i did find a Timothy Bowes married to a Ellen Keogh living in the Rathfarham area in the 1860s 70 they were the parents of children born 1864  onwards but no 1862 .  It looks like the male Bowes around 1911 happened to be painters and decoraters . i d be delighted with any help thank Fran

Unless you want to try searching through microfilms in the National Library, your best option for finding a baptism is the Irish Genealogy website. They plan to add further details soon. Hopefully a couple of the remaining city RC parishes will be added when they do this.
