Best website for Irish Baptism Records

Hannaho

My uncle, Patrick Burke, died in November, 1945 age 17, according to GRO - they tried several years before and after 1928, with mother's maiden name of Coyne/Kyne, but there apparently is no birth cert for him. I have his Death Cert. I'm trying to locate a Baptism Cert for him. I'm fairly sure he was baptised in Tuam, along with his older siblings. They lived close to the Cathedral in Tuam. What is the best website to find his baptism details. The irishgeneaology.ie one doesn't seem to be that great with baptisms.

A 1928 Baptism won't be online, too recent.

RootsIreland (subscription) has the most recent transcripts of parish registers and that only goes to 1900 for Tuam.

Nowhere will have baptism records after about 1920. You need to contact individual churches and you're at the mercy of their response. Some will help out for free, others for a fee and some won't ever reply.
