I search the Irish Family History Foundation's database. It contains 12,000,000 surviving rcds for abt 65% of Irish counties. Rcds B4 1840 are sparse.
For Catherine Heffernan B 1898 (exact), I found 1 B rcd in Mullinavat, Kilkenny. Her father's name was Michael.
For Richard Walsh having a father named Richard B 1895 (exact) in all Ireland, I found 0 rcds. However, if I change the search yr range to +/- 1 yr, I find 10 rcds, 4 being in Kilkenny.
Rcds for Co Carlow haven't been digitized yet. Suggest you wait until they are.
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.
Good luck.
