    Hi,

    When looking up civil birth records for Ireland on familyserach.org , some of these records show christening info also but most dont, where does this info come from? I know it comes from parish registers but does family serach have access to these records and add some of them?

    Thanks

    Volunteers have submitted both parish records and extracted information from civil registers over the years. If it gives baptism information, then it is the former type.

    Hello,
    My name is Vicky Kenny, and I recently found out the name of my grandfather after pestering my dad for a long time. I'm 19 so I think that he may still be alive and I really want to make contact before it's too late. I have tried all of the ancestry sites that I can. He was from Dublin at the time but that was over 50 years ago, so I have no idea where he could be. If anybody has gone through something similar I would really like to know how you found the person you were looking for.
    Thanks in advance :)
