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 Mary Wright M 1872 +/- 4 yrs somewhere in Ireland, I found 40 rcds - too many to list here.
For William McCormick M ditto, I found 55 rcds.
For William McCormick B 1855 (exact) with a father forenamed Michael, I found 2 rcds: Co. Dublin and Limerick.
For Mary Daley M 1821 +/- 4 yrs somewhere in Ireland, I found 65 rcds.
For Michael McCormick M ditto, I found 19 rcds: 1818 LIM, 1818 LNG, 1819 WSM*, 1819 ROS, 1820 LIM, 1820 WSM*, 1821 WSM*, 1821 LNG, 1821 ROS, 1822 KIL, 1822 LNG, 1822 WSM, 1824 WSM*, 1825 KIL, 1825 GAL*, 1825 WSM*, & 1825 CAV.
The asterisks above indicated yr/cnty combinations which match those for Mary. Suggest you search these to find if there is a match at the parish level of detail.
For Michael McCormick B 1801 +/- 2 yrs in Co. Dublin with the father's forename unknown, I found 0 rcds. Using an all Ireland search criterion, I found 11 rcds.
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.
