Hello Marty:
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 Martin White M 1839 +/- 1 yr, Co. Roscommon, I found 0 rcds.
For Martin White B 1816 +/- 1 yr, Co. Roscommon with the father's forename unknown, I found 0 rcds. The closest were in 1808 and 1836. Neither was in Boyle parish.
For Wi(nifred) Noon B 1818 (exact), Co. Roscommon, with the father's forename unknown, I found 0 rcds.
For Pat(rick) Noon M 1816 +/- 2 yrs, Co. Roscommon, I found 0 rcds.
For Pat(rick) Noon B 1794 +/- 4 yrs, Co. Roscommon, with the father's forename unknown, I found 1 rcd in 1794, Boyle RC parish.
Will leave it to you to experiment with other search ranges, etc.
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.
