I have found two short notes in my late Fathers papers which mention his Mother being at Freiburg Convent, Germany. She was half German. I am sure this must have been pre WWI, so I can only think that this was part of her education.

I am surprised as I have always been under the impression that our family were all protestants. Would a protestant girl be allowed to study there? Did this place even have a school? If the answers are yes, would this have been for a fee? My family were hardly wealthy.

Any help would most welcome. ]]> Catholic Records rocala http://www.british-genealogy.com/forums/showthread.php?62662-Freiburg-Convent http://www.british-genealogy.com/forums/showthread.php?62256-Confirmation-Records&goto=newpost Tue, 17 Aug 2010 08:28:48 GMT Just wondered if the brains on here could help with my Aunt's query.

My Aunt is trying to locate the Confirmation certificate of my Uncle's confirmation - having gone through all his possessions she can't find it although is sure one was given to him. Here's the outline.

My Uncle was confirmed on the morning of his wedding to my Aunt. They were married in the State of Qatar in the Persian Gulf.

My Uncle's confirmation was conducted on the morning of their wedding by the Archbishop of Jerusalem having received his special permission as theirs was the first Christian marriage to take place in the State.

I wondered if there was any way to get a copy of his confirmation certificate or document. Any help would be greatly appreciated. ]]> Catholic Records Liane Hawes http://www.british-genealogy.com/forums/showthread.php?62256-Confirmation-Records http://www.british-genealogy.com/forums/showthread.php?62135-Catholic-marriages-in-barrow-upon-soar-leices&goto=newpost Thu, 12 Aug 2010 20:04:53 GMT I am hoping someone may find any catholic marriages for me.

Is there a general register of Roman Catholic Baptisms? I am trying to trace my father's baptism. I have written to several churches in the area of London where he was living at the time but none of them have a record of it. ]]> Catholic Records suety http://www.british-genealogy.com/forums/showthread.php?62005-Catholic-Baptismal-Records
