Andrew Moore Family of Newry, Down, Ireland, 1700

INISHITIVE is a 1,466 acre townland in Termonmaguirk parish, Co. Tyrone.
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 Andrew Moore and Isabella Baxter B/M in Co. Down, there are 0 rcds prior to 1800 in this database. I think the transcription of ALL B/M/D rcds for this County is complete. Doubtful that any more rcds will be added.
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.
