Baptism record 1827 Banagher, Offaly County, Ireland, as best I can read it :
8 July B (baptised) Jacob??? Quigly ? Jacobi ? (and) Sarah. SS (sponsors of baptism) Patritio Connelly ? (and) Cath'en Davy.
Could anyone please fill in the question marks.
Also son Jacob, would this name be known as James ? Surname is Quigly.
Should it read : 8 July baptism James Quigly, of James and Sarah?
Thank you for any help
