Community surnames extracts from Seary's Names of the Island of Newfoundland, 1835 Voters Lists, 1864-65 Hutchinson 1871 Lovell's Directory, 1894-97 McAlpine's Directory, 1898 McAlpine's Directory, 1904 McAlpine's as well as some parish records and cemetery inscriptions.

There were names in these communities that were not picked up by Seary and I believe that the some of the entries for the earlier Hr. Grace (HGRC) were surnames of these Conception Bay communities

A couple of examples of why I believe this is as follows:

Barron/Barren (Holyrood) There is a James on the 1835 Voters List for Holyrood and on the 1864-65 directory as a fisherman. Seary shows a James Barron or Barren of Hr. Grace Parish, 1806 (NF. Archives HGRC)

Targate (Holyrood): There is a John Targate on the 1835 Voters List for Holyrood, as well as on the 1864-65 directory and the Targate surname still appeared on the 1871 Lovell's, although John was no longer listed. Seary shows a John Targate of Hr. Grace, 1813 (NF Archives HGRC)

Based on the above, I believe that one can safely assume that if this name appears to be a match for one of your ancestors from the Conception Bay Centre area, ten chances to one, it is. The people "up the bay" as it was called, used St. Paul's Anglican and Immaculate Conception Parish till they became a part of the parish of Brigus in 1833.

ANTHONY:		a baptismal name and surname of England, Wales 
			and Ireland,   Ant (h) oine  of France,  Anthony and 
			Ant (h) oine of the Channel Islands,  from the Latin 
			personal name  Antonius, of unknown origin, the name 
			of many saints.Withycombe comments on the spelling and 
			pronuncation:  "The intrusive  h   in the spelling  
			Anthony was a later development, and seems not to appear 
			before the late 16th century.   It may have been the 
			result of false etymologizing, for Camden (1605) derives 
			the name from Greek  anthos  (flower).  The  h  is, of 
			course, silent, but there is some danger nowadays of a 
			spelling pronuncation (already in use in USA),  and the 
			older spelling is to be preferred."(Reaney, Withycombe, 
			Turk).   Guppy found Anthony mostly in South Wales, and 
			in smaller number in Norfolk, Derbyshire and Devon;   
			McLysaght in Waterford since the 17th century.
