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). For Denis Doody B 1879 (exact) somewhere in Ireland with a father forenamed John, I found 1 rcd in Meelin parish, Co. Cork. For the siblings, I found B rcds for all in the yrs indicated in Meelin parish. For John Doody M 1872 +/- 1 yr in Co. Cork, I found 1 rcd in 1873, Meelin parish. For Johanna Dennehy M ditto, I found ditto. The M rcds for Johanna and John are likely for your ancestors. A view of the detailed rcds SHOULD show the marriage was to each other. It also should show their parents' names and other info. 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. Notify Administrator about this message?
