Hi Louise:
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).
Killnacrott is a townland in Co. Cavan, parish of Crosserlough.
For Peter Delaney B 1857 +/- 4 yrs in Co. Cavan with a father forenamed Bernard, I found 1 rcd in 1857, parish of Crosserlough. This fits your criteria exactly. It is likely for your ancestor - but, no guarantee.
For his siblings Ann, Cat(herine) & Bernard, I find rcds in the 1860s for them.
For Bernard Delaney M 1852 +/- 4 yrs, I found 0 rcds in either Cavan, or the remainder of Ireland.
For Mary Deighan B 1868 +/- 4 yrs somewhere in Ireland with a father forenamed Michael, I found 3 rcds: 1864, & 2-1871, all in Co. Kilkenny.
For Michael Deighan M 1863 +/- 4 yrs somewhere in Ireland, I found 7 rcds: 1859 Kildare, 1860 Kilkenny*, 1862 Kildare*, 1863 Kilkenny*, 2-1864 Limerick*, and 1864 Sligo.
For Mary O'Neill M 1863 ditto, I found POTENTIALLY matching M rcds in the asterisked yr/cnty combinations above. Will leave it to you to search at the parish level. If you find a match at the parish level, this is almost certainly for your ancestors.
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.
