Hi Jenni I wrote to them back in 1994 at National Archives Bishop St Dublin 8 Ireland. When you email the library just check with them as they should be able to tell you their address just in case it has changed or the records have been moved. If there is an index of the names, they would probably check this for you and let you know if he is list. In my case they found no reference. If you tell them you are interested in a photocopy of the record they may quote you, how much if they find a record.
