I research the Irish Family History Foundation's database. It contains 12,000,000 surviving rcds for abt 65% of Irish counties. Rcds are increasingly sparse B4 1840, rare B4 1800.
Note 1 - Without a KNOWN county, the chance of an ancestor's rcds NOT being in this database is AT LEAST 35%.
Note 2 - Only 1/2 of Co. Cork's rcds are in this database.
Note 3 - The RC church kept control over most parish rcds from Tipperary (north). These are ONLY available thru the Tipperary Family History Research center at a substantial fee (regardless of outcome).
For Ann Carney M 1865 +/- 4 yrs in Co. Roscommon, I found 2 rcds: 1866 Ballinameen RC parish and 1868 Elphin civil parish.
For Bernard Dolan M ditto, I found 0 matching rcds.
For Ann Carney B 1834 +/- 4 yrs in Co. Roscommon with the father forenamed James, I found 1 rcd in 1837, Elphin RC parish.
For James Carney M 1832 +/- 4 yrs, Elphin RC parish, Co. Roscommon, I found 2 rcds: 1817 and 1823. The 1823 rcd appears the more likely.
Possible siblings to Ann are Bridget 1831, Catherine 1831, Dermot 1833, Earl 1823, Eugene 1835, James 1826, John 1828, Michael 1832, Mary 1833, Peter 1839, Thomas 1827, and Winifred 1836. There are obviously two or more Carney families headed by a James in Elphin parish in this era.
Google the Foundation's name to lead you to this database. Register, opt to be notified as rcds are added and browse. Pls post your search results to my genforum msg.
Hope this helps. Good luck.
