Rose Blanche and La Poile Anglican Records

What follows is a list of all Pike entries in the Rose Blanche and La Poile Anglican records held at PANL as of May 2008. This list constitutes a typescript of my handwritten extraction from photocopies of the original records, which is to say that I may have inadvertantly introduced some errors while transcribing and typing... as always, you should double-check against the original records. That said, if you spot any mistakes that I have made, please let me know at dapike@mun.ca. Additional Pike entries from other Newfoundland church records can also be found on my website.

At PANL these records are on Reel 36 of the parish records collection, which contains entries as follows:

The first set of records (starting in 1856) appear to be from La Poile, whereas the others are from Rose Blanche itself). There is a note in this first volume (from La Poile) as follows: 
   The old Register from the year 1847 to the end of
   the year 1855 contains the following Numbers
           Baptisms  322
           Marriages  58
           Burials    60
PANL does not appear to have a copy of these records from 1847 - 1855.

Baptisms (1856 - 1910)

In addition to the single baptism that mentioned the name Pike, I also extracted several other baptisms that appear to involve the same couple (William Bond/Pond and Adelaide Pike). Note that there is an 1880 marriage in the Anglican records from Channel for a "Mary Ann Ponn" who is described as being a 17-year-old daughter of "William Pon" and from Isle aux Mortes. My belief is that this Mary Ann is the same person as shown in the first baptism listed below.
