There is a burial record in 1836, St James, Bristol.
John Barry, 82 yrs , St Peter’s Hospital.
It looks as though it was the workhouse or asylum.
Also, he would be quite old as a father for those later baptisms.

There is also a burial record, St George, Brandon hill - April 1836
John Barry, 63 yrs of Frog Lane

Thank you heywood, they are possible burials.  It's difficult to confirm as it's just a bit too early to order a death certificate.

I was hoping either Joannis or Anstice had lived until the 1841 census but that was a long shot.

Those deaths were before civil records so you wouldn’t get any death certificate anyway.

On a slightly different note, in a Catholic bapstism if the father's name is written as 'Edwini', does that translate to Edward or Edwin please?

It would be Eduardus usually or Eduardi if it is meaning ‘of Edward’.
I have seen Edward and Edmund used interchangeably for the same name in records also.
I think Edwin is more unusual - but that is just me!

Thank you everyone for your help with this.

I've spent the past few days going back over my ancestors that I know are correct, trying to find the Barry possible Irish connection.  I'm not sure where to turn as the information I've found, previously and now, don't tie-up.  Or I'm missing something obvious by looking at it so much!

Should I do a new post with a new subject heading asking for help with the info I've got (it's quite a bit), or post here?  I thought it may be clearer if I do a new one?

Thank you :)

If you think it best to begin again with a new thread, just provide a link to this one and explain.
