Family History
A Memory of Kensington.
After I foumd out that my family lived at 3 Canning Place in 1838 and attended the Holland Street Catholic Chapel, I discovered the RC baptisms of John Rogers Herbert RA artist and my g.g.g.aunt Kezia Herbert nee Dedman's three children's baptisms at Holland Street RC Chapel 1838. A wonderful surprise. These registers were only discovered in 2008 and are kept at the Westminster Diocesean Archives Abimgdon Road Kensimgton.But I am still searchimg for my ancestor's RC baptism 1838 at a RC Chapel in London. As for her husband's RC convert baptism that also has never been found. I believe they were received into the Catholic Faith in 1838 at another RC Chapel in St Pancras where they moved from in 1838 or another RC Chapel in Kensington. I would like to hear from anyone who knows of other Roman Catholic Chapels in this area. Regards John Dedman
