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 Anthony Pettipiece B ???? in Co. Sligo, I found 0 rcds at anydate. For the forenamed children B various dates in Co. Sligo with a father forenamed Anthony, again 0 rcds. For the surname Pettipiece in Co. Sligo, there are 9 B and 9 M rcds. There are notes to the "sources" which indicate rcds for Castlemore & Kilcolman, Glenade & Ballaghantrellick, Killenummery & Killery, and Riverstown haven't been digitized. The rcds are listed as being "held at centre." Query the center at heritagesligo@eircom.net for prices. 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?
