I recently bought the CD KY Catholic Baptisms. It included three of the children of Benjamin Medcalf and Catherine Carroll. I believe this is Nancy, Benjamin, and my Martha. Here is what it says:

METCALF, BENJAMIN & CATHERINE CARROLL
Baptized Anna Metcalfe, 7-03-1832, at Holy Name of Mary Catholic Church. Birth date not given. Sponsor, Elizabeth Wise. Parents: Benedict Meadcalf and Catherine Carroll.

Baptized Benedict Joseph Metcalf, 5-10-1838, by Rev. Louis Nicholas Petit at St. Charles Catholic Church. Birth date, 11-29-1837. Sponsor, Rebecca Carroll. Parents: Benjamin and Catherine Medcalf.

Baptized Martha Ann Metcalfe, 6-18-1840, at Holy Name of Mary Catholic Church. Birth date,
3-05-1840. Sponsor, Rebecca Carroll. Parents: Benjamin Medcalf and Catherine Carroll.

And here is the reference material for it:

Holy Name of Mary Catholic Church, Calvary, Ky.
Book 1 - 1807/1835 by Rev. John A. Lyons
Book 3 - 1836/1874 by Rev. John A. Lyons

If you have Catholic ancestors in Nelson, Marion, or Washington counties, this CD might be worth the cost. It includes Black baptisms as well and is a work in progress. I was glad to find it because it helped break through a brick wall.
