Hello All, I was searching through various registers for Co Louth, Ireland. I found the following transcription which has confused me a little (this is just me being inquisitive) .....I know marriages were entered in the bap. register post 1907 after a letter of freedom was sought but this is a little different. I thought I'd generate a little discussion and you can give me your thoughts if you wish. Dundalk Co Louth 14-09-1895,Hughes,Kathleen,Quay St Parents Hughes,John and Bellew,Anne, sponsors Thomas, Hughes,,Mary, Watters,, Priest and Husband? H McSherry/Alfred Dummber 24091923 St Patrick's Dundalk /Bapt In Cathedral Cardiff. This shows the baptism date and the marriage from 1923 which I would expect to see in 1923....what I do not get is the reference to a baptism in Cardiff ! Unless of course the child soon moved back to Dundalk and a few years later the baptism was added when 1st communion came up etc. (Bellew, Hughes and Watters are common enough to Co Louth) http://kevsirishresearch.blogspot.com/
