George, I am moving your post over to the Family History Research forum as I think more people will see it there.
There are some parish registers online on Findmypast for Wales, you might be lucky in finding a copy of the baptism register.
You may find some members have access to other records - do you want to give your mother's name in case anything can be found for you.
You say the church was St. Edmonds, what parish was that in.Elaine

Is the church still in existence? worth asking the parish priest but it could be he's averse to family history as it's time consuming or they might have been retained.
When I was looking recently for some in the North East I had to go to Tyne & Wear archives and trawl through the microfilm but perhaps you might find them on a film from the LDS. It's about £7.50 for 3 months these days.
There was only a list of those being confirmed and what their confirmation names were. Don't think I saw any First Communion entries so it may be a bit hit and miss whether these records survive. However baptisms are great as they show the godparent(s).Last edited by JBee; 09-11-12, 16:32.

Oops sorry thought it was RC .............
Have you looked to see if there's a church office telephone number? He may have given the request to the church clerk and it's been overlooked.
The church office I contacted about half siblings christenings were very helpful and did search to try and find one that was missing. Think she mustn't have been done!! lol
