This Could be Luke Dunn Baptism Record
This Could be Luke Dunn Baptism Record

Note: This baptism record is difficult to read. The name could be Susan or perhaps Lusian. In any case it is definitely a record for a child of Francis and Lucy. What is really interesting is that Andrew Saunders was a sponsor. The only Andrew Saunders known were old Andrew Saunders of Knocknaboley who was a Protestant and James Saunders' son Andrew, who would have been 18. Since James Saunders was an active, practicing Church of Ireland member, it is likely that it was the younger. This might indicate that old Andrew Saunders had converted to Catholicism or that there was a third Andrew Saunders, perhaps a younger brother of Lucy.
