Please read all of the following
carefully.
The following "copied" records
(bottom of the page) are
presented merely as an indicator, that there may be information
contained in the original parish records, in which you are
interested.
These records were copied by volunteers. The parish
cannot and does not guarantee
that they are accurate nor that they are complete.
Should you find information within
these records of interest to you, please contact the parish to check
the accuracy of the records. Use this email address:
rita@francisstreetparish.ie
When the parish issues certificates,
it does so, based on the original records held in the parish.
These files are password protected. In
order to gain access you need to email us at
franciss@francisstreetparish.ie supplying your name and a
genuine email address.
Access is granted on the understanding
that you will not re-publish these records in any format whatsoever.
The information is being made available for personal use. We stress
again that we cannot and do not
guarantee the accuracy or completeness of these "copied" records.
The records have been divided up as
you see them below, for your convenience. However, record keeping in
the 1800's wasn't always done in a completely sequential manner. You
might therefore need to search more than one batch of records.
The records are presented as pdf
files. These will open if you have Adobe Reader on your computer. It
is advisable to have the latest version of the software on your
computer. You can find it
here. Ensure that you are downloading the correct version for
your operating system.
If you are searching for the name of
someone who has been baptised, is is better to search for their
family or surname. If you are searching for the parent of someone
who has been baptised you can do so by entering first name and
surname.
These files should be searchable in
all browsers. The latest version of Internet Explorer seems to be
slightly more useful for this purpose. When you open the files in
either Firefox or Internet Explorer, a floating menu will appear.
Click on the Adobe symbol on the right side of this menu and it will
bring up the Adobe toolbars in the document. To search, click on the
"binoculars" that you can see on the left of the page. In Google
Chrome, you have to go into the tools section of the browser and
click on "Find". The tools section is found at the top
right corner of Google Chrome.
