I searched 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 Edward Flynn B 1814 (exact) somewhere in Ireland, I found 2 B rcds: Cork and Galway. Rcds in this era aren't good. Your overall chances are less than 25%.
For Edward Flynn M 1846 +/- 1 yr ditto, I found 6 M rcds: 1845 Leitrim, 1845 Limerick, 1845 Galway, 1846 Tipperary, 1847 Cork, and 1847 Longford.
For Amelia/Emily, I can't search for her M rcd separately since you don't have her maiden name. However, the RIGHT M rcd for Edward SHOULD show the bride's name. Rcds by this era were generally good. I would start with the 1847 Cork M rcd. If it is the right one, it SHOULD show their parents' names.
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.
