Kildrumferton Rectory Crosserlough P.O. Co. Cavan Ireland 3 April 1990 Dear Mr. Jordan Thank you for our letter and money order. I was interested to receive the copies of the letters of recommendation, and have filed them for reference. Here is what I have been able to establish. Jane Wallace Baptized: 23rd May 1819 (Please note the date of Baptism only is recorded in these first records.) Location: St. Patrick's Church, Kildrumferton Mother's Name: Mary (not Ann) Father's Name: John William Knowles Born: 27th Dec. 1848 Baptized: 31st Dec. 1848 Location: St. Patrick's Church, Kildrumferton Mother's Name: Jane Father's Name: William There is no record of a Baptism of Robert Knowles in either the Kildrumferton or Ballymachugh records. He may have either been Baptized elsewhere or not at all. I enclose and extract from the Marriage Register giving the details or the marriage between William Knowles and Jane Wallace. I hope that will help you with your research. Yours Sincerely, Rev. D. Williams

**Baptismal Record Search Comments**
Above is a transcript of a 3 April 1990 letter from the Kildrumferton Rectory regarding baptismal records for Jane Wallace and her sons William (Wallace) Knowles and Robert Knowles. The information for Jane Wallace is probably our Jane Wallace but more crosschecking with other records as they are found should be done to be sure Information from Dolores Woodbury and Muriel Leonhardt indicated that Jane was born at Duff Castle, Parish Crosserlough (Kildrumferton). Jane's marriage record indicates she lived in Duff Castle at the time of her marriage and her marriage took place at St. Patrick's Church, Kildrumferton. Thus it appears that St. Patrick's covered the area of Duff Castle.	The 1821 Census for Duff Castle indicated a Jane Wallace born about 1819. That record indicated that her mother was Ann and her father was a pensioner. What is believed to be Jane's Baptismal Record indicates her mother to be Mary and her Marriage Record indicates her father to be John Wallace and a Penioner. It is believe that the 1821 Census listing is not for our Jane Wallace. The letter indicates that no record of a Baptism for Robert Knowles was found in Kildrumferton or Ballymachugh records. The years suggested for the search were 1853-1857. However, the IGI shows that he was born in Duff Castle in 1856. This needs further investigation. A second listing of a Baptismal Record for Jane Wallace was found in a search of the Microfilm for the Kildrumferton Parish Register. This one lists the sponsors. One sponsor was Jane Wallace, possibly an aunt that she was named after. In fact, this could be the Jane Wallace, born about 1802 in the 1821 Census.

**Marriage Certificate Comments**
This marriage certificate was provided by the Kildrumferton Directory, Crosserlough P.O at the same time as the Baptismal record information for Jane Wallace. William Knowles and Jane Wallace were married on November 15, 1847.	The form used was probably recent so the data entered does not match the column headings for some data. It is interesting that William Knowles, age was a pensioner. It is thought that he served in the British Army.
