Location for Bartholomew Leary

Hello Kelly:
I research the Irish Family History Foundation's database. It contains 12,700,000 surviving rcds for abt 70% of Irish counties. Rcds are increasingly sparse B4 1840, rare B4 1800.
Note 1 - Without a KNOWN county, the chance of an ancestor's rcds NOT being in this database is AT LEAST 30%.
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 Bart(holomew) Leary B ????, Co. Cork, with a father forenamed Denis, I found 1 rcd in 1837. This seems too late to fit your timeline.
For Sarah Cassidy B ????, somewhere in Ireland, with a father forenamed Edward, I found 0 rcds within a relevant range.
For Edward Cassidy M before 1830 somewhere in Ireland, I found 3 rcds: 1811 Meath, 1813 Meath, and 1829 Antrim.
For Ann McGlinchy M ditto, I found 0 matching rcds.
Suggest you wait until the database, especially for Cork, is more complete.
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.
