The Church were the confirmation took place is now closed down and deconserated. I have the exact date and the name of the Bishop who performed the confirmation. The Cathedral don't seem to have any idea either..

I am in fact trying to trace my Baptism record, but that can't be located where I thought I was baptised, but if I can prove my confirmation, the Baptism has to be accepted as having happened.

OK.
I live in the UK. The Church is Church of England, the Anglican faith.

I can not ask my parents as my mother passed away almost 10 years ago and my father is all but senile. As I am almost 50 years old, this is not as straight forward as I thought. I have no idea who the last Priest was, as I left home 32 years ago.

The reason I need physical proof is two fold, but both connected. I am seeking admittion to the Roman Catholic Church and I need to prove my Baptism as part of an application to the Church Tribuneral for request to annull past marriages on verious grounds. I would also prefer to have my baptism accepted not questioned.

I guess it isn't something many people bother about these days. One of the joys of being older...... you're allowed to be a bit quirkey.

Thanks for help so far.

You are in fact incorrect in your observation that the Catholic Church does not recognize non-Catholic Baptism. In the Profession of Faith or The Nicene Creed .... We acknowledge one baptism for the forgiveness of sin.......

If, like me, a person chooses to convert from Protestant to Catholic faiths, and can prove their Baptism in the former, they do not need to be re-baptized. I have already had this confirmed by my Priest.
