Hi Mary Anne:
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 county, 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 Mich(ael) Noone B 1883 +/- 2 yrs, Co. Roscommon, with a father forenamed Mich(ael), I found 2 rcds in 1881, 1-church, 1-civil.
For Pat(rick) Noone B 1875 +/- 1 ditto, I found 2 rcds in 1876 ditto.
For Ann(e) Garvey M 1871 +/- 4 yrs somewhere in Ireland, I found 14 rcds: 3-1870 Mayo, 1-1870 Tyrone, 5-1871 Mayo, 2-1872 Limerick, 1872 Louth, and 2-1875 Meath.
For Mich(ael) Noone M ditto, I found 4 rcds: 2-1868 Mayo, 1870 Mayo, and 1873 Mayo. There was a POTENTIAL match in 1870 Mayo. However, when screened at the parish level, the Ms occurred in different parishes.
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.
