Eleven New Family Pages and Update to Two Others

Hello Everyone,

Here's the latest batch of family pages and updates based upon the available NLI Catholic parish records that are available online.

Updated Pages:


New Family Pages:


The above families were found in the Kildysart and Kilfiddane parishes which had joint parochial responsibilities.  The earliest records come from the Kildysart baptisms beginning in the 1830s moving forward.  Lardner baptism sponsors and marriage witnesses were not researched.

Until Later,

More Family Page Updates

Hi Everyone,

Guess what happens when you revisit research/sources when your not completely and totally exhausted?  That's right. You find people... Right. Where. You. Would. Expect. Them. To. Be. *facepalm*

Anyway...  I've updated the pages for the following families:
More updates coming as I wade through the registers.

Until Later,

New Lardners Identified and Added! *Corofin and Ennis*

Hello Everyone,

Just a quick update. I've added a new family page, made a connection to an existing family and found a previously unknown (to this blog) child.

Family of Margaret Lardner and Thomas Hunt **Corofin, Ennis, Ireland**

Margaret appears to be the child of William Lardner and Eliza Carrig per her marriage registry, who are listed as living in Ennis.  I had not discovered a index entry for her baptism on the Ennis parish website, but she has been added to her parents family page.

Family of William Lardner and Eliza Carrig **Ennis, Ireland**

In addition, I've discovered the baptism record for child whose mother was a Lardner in Corofin... Unfortunately his father is unknown at this time, as he appears to have been born out of wedlock.

    • Birth Date: 09 May 1874
      • (Correction made to match baptism record, FHL had the 8th.)

Catholic Parish Registers at the National Library of Ireland (? - 1880)

Hello Everyone!

Great news for those of you who may have Irish Catholic ancestors.  The National Library of Ireland has digitalized all of their Catholic parish records from their earliest time periods to the year 1880 and has made them accessible for free online at : http://registers.nli.ie/.

This is super exciting and I hope everyone has success with their research. Go check the records out!

With this new accessible resource now available, I have updated the following Lardner family pages with baptism and marriage information.


Time permitting, I hope to get the remaining pages updated by the end of this weekend.

Until Later,
Jessica
