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 parish, 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).
There are NO Norry Desmonds in this database. Norry is likely a nickname for Honor or Hanora.
For Hon(ora) Desmond B 1849 +/- 4 yrs somewhere in Ireland with the father's forename unknown, I found 3 rcds: 1845 Cork, 1850 Dublin, and 1851 Limerick.
For Hon(ora) Desmond M 1870 +/- 4 yrs somewhere in Ireland, I found 1 rcd in 1869 Cork.
For Denis Herlihy M ditto, I found 3 rcds: 1870 Tipperary, 1870 Cork, and 1870 Galway. None of these match the rcd for Honora.
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.
