Reading over your additional information, I realize this is a long shot, but ... What about across the bridge in Queens? Although I'm having trouble identifying a likely parish. St. Sebastian's in Woodside was founded in 1894, but I doubt that means they'd have been up and running by the time your baptism would have taken place.   Liz Haigney Lynch ________________________________ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Message: 1 Date: Wed, 30 Nov 2011 09:47:17 -0500 (EST) From: [email protected] Subject: [BKLYN] 1894 Catholic Church???
