I searched 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.
For Pat(rick) Ryan B 1837 +/- 4 yrs in all Ireland, I found 568 B rcds. You need to find parents' names, County, parish, exact DOB, etc., to validate which rcd is for your ancestor.
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.
