Hello Brad:
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 Ben(jamin) Condron M 18?? I couldn't find B or M rcds for any date anywhere in Ireland in the database.
For Elizabeth Dunn B 1830 +/- 2 yrs somewhere in Ireland with a father forenamed Den(is), I found 2 rcds: 1829 Kildare and 1831 Roscommon. A view of the detailed rcds SHOULD show the mother's name. If one, if any, was named Catherine Delaney, this would validate the rcd.
For Den(is) Dunn M 1826 +/- 4 yrs somewhere in Ireland, I found 11 rcds: 1822 Kildare, 1823 Roscommon, 1823 Kilkenny, 1824 Kilkenny, 1825 Kildare, 1825 Wicklow, 1826 Wicklow, 1828 Limerick, 1829 Kildare, 1829 Westmeath, and 1830 Westmeath.
For Cat(herine) Delaney M ditto, I found 47 rcds. Those yr/cnty combinations in common with Denis' were - None! You might want to try a different search range. Caution - the 1820's were very early for Irish rcd keeping.
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.
