WHITE Arthur b. abt 1853 Dublin Ireland

John Report 13 Jul 2011 11:49

Am looking for information on Arthur WHITE who moved to England between 1861-1871. He is recorded as a Tailor from 81 onwards and has a son Arthur b. abt 1875 in London (also a Tailor). I have found the relevant family but cannot trace anything on the family baptisms, probably as they are RC. They are located in St James Westminster and St Annes Soho. I would welcome any suggestions particularly on baptisms/marriages for RC etc.

Kind regards.

Hi Everyone

Many thanks for your responses. I forgot to mention I have them in the census from 1871 (Arthur senior) up to 1911 with Arthur junior. What I cannot locate are any church records, i.e. christenings marriages etc. I have the various official records i.e. GRO refs etc, I simply cannot locate any church records which seems to me somewhat odd! I am assuming, which can be dangerous, that the family were all Roman Catholics.

Catherine, where did you get the information in your post?

Apologies to all for not mentioning the census stuff.

Kind regards.

John

PS - I have not yet gotten around to ordering any certificates as I only started this tree just over a week ago.

RC churches seem to keep their own parish records - any idea which church it could be? then you can google for it and see what they have

Most City of Dublin parish registers are free online at:

[There are also Carlow, Cork & Kerry OPRs there too]
