Ellen Fanning
Daughter of John and
Margaret (nee McKenna) Fanning

Birth/Baptism
Ellen Fanning, daughter of John and Margaret (nee McKenna) Fanning, was born January 1, 1869, in the townland of Lissaraw, in Co. Monaghan, Ireland. I have obtained a copy of Ellen Fanning's civil registration birth register record. I have also obtained, through my sister-in-law, Jan McCabe, a transcribed copy of Ellen's baptism record. To view a copy of the Ellen Fanning civil registration birth register record I have obtained, click civil registration. To view a copy of the Ellen Fanning transcribed baptism record I have obtained, click baptism.

There is a difference between the Ellen Fanning civil registration birth register record and her baptism record. I have chosen to go with the birth date from Ellen's baptism record. The difference between Ellen's birth date and her baptism date on her baptism record was just two days. The difference between Ellen's birth date and the date her birth was registered on her civil registration birth record was over a month later. With Ellen's birth and baptism being so much closer together on her baptism record, I'll go with Ellen's birth date being the one listed on her baptism record.
