Thomas Fanning
Son of John and
Margaret (nee McKenna) Fanning

Birth/Baptism
Thomas Fanning, son of John and Margaret (nee McKenna) Fanning, was born March 25, 1873, in the townland of Lissaraw, in Co. Monaghan, Ireland. I have obtained a copy of Thomas Fanning's civil registration birth register record. I have also obtained, through my sister-in-law, Jan McCabe, a transcribed copy of Thomas' baptism record. To view a copy of the Thomas Fanning civil registration birth register record I have obtained, click civil registration. To view a copy of the Thomas Fanning transcribed baptism record I have obtained, click baptism.

There is a difference in the birth day on Thomas Fanning's civil registration birth register record and his baptism record. I have chosen to go with the birth date from Thomas' baptism record. The difference between Thomas' birth date and his baptism date on his baptism record was just two days. The difference between Thomas' birth date and the date his birth was registered on his civil registration birth register record was roughly six weeks. With Thomas' birth and baptism being so much closer together on his baptism record, I'll go with Thomas' birth date being the one listed on his baptism record.
