Civil parish or Denominational Church? edit

This article needs to make up its mind; it's either about a civil parish or it's about a particular piece of bricks and mortar currently controlled by a particular denomination. If the former, then it needs to contain information about the civil parish, barony and county. The name should also reflect that purpose e.g. "St. X (civil parish)" or "Civil parish of St. X". On the other hand, if the article's purpose is closer to the latter, then why does it have a category of civil parish? If the article deals exclusively with the bricks and mortar apect, then it's other legal function is no more than a co-incidence. Either way, I would have thought that the problem would be one for discussion on this page and not one for wholesale deletion with a line of "speculation". Had the question been raised here, in its proper forum, I would have been happy to have supplied an explanation that made sense. It was not based on speculation: it was linked and sourced to official databases. The undebated deletion was, at the very least, discourteous and not best practice for Wikipedians. I will leave it to the deleting editor to do his research on these matters. Meanwhile, I will undo the deletion. I'm happy to enter constructive debate on any matters that might remain unclear after the research. Laurel Lodged (talk) 13:00, 16 August 2010 (UTC)Reply

This discussion has been here for almost a month with no input from the main editor. There is a discussion on the WikiIreland talk page where that editor has made contributions. These have been found to be generally lacking in merit. Another editor has given notice that he intends to take action on the inappropriate categirisation. This is to give notice that I intend to remove the civil parishe category in 2 days time. Laurel Lodged (talk) 18:13, 13 October 2010 (UTC)Reply

Records edit

How can I get records of my great grandmother’s Baptism? Her name was Catharine Sweeney, the date was June 6, 1802. My name is Catherine Smith-Barrett. Any information will be greatly appreciated. 2601:704:1:A791:C8B7:18FD:A054:A964 (talk) 18:17, 8 April 2022 (UTC)Reply
