Just this year the National Library of Ireland has put online for free digitised records of Catholic parish registers in its possession. http://registers.nli.ie/ To the best of my knowledge it is not searchable, so you would need in advance a location and preferably parish. Some I have looked up are jam packed to the point of illegibility, often in random order, so extreme patience is required and a dollop of luck, but they are there, for free. The Church of Ireland (Anglican) has put out very recently a summary of where all its surviving parish registers are held. See http://ireland.anglican.org/cmsfiles/pdf/AboutUs/library/registers/ParishReg istersTable.pdf. The RCB Library referred to is its own archive in suburban Dublin. There was a surprisingly large community of Quakers (Society of Friends) all over Ireland and FMP has a large run of its excellent records. There was a similarly large population of Huguenot descendants. I am not sure if their records are online but many large libraries or societies hold copious volumes. Mentioning FMP, you can save time by using the top left drop-down box that at first shows "World". Under this you can select Ireland to just get hits from its Irish holdings. Similarly with FamilySearch, clicking on their "Search" tab, at the page that opens scroll down until you see a map of the world. Click on the British Isles in the map and then choose Ireland. Both of these manoeuvres can save a lot of extraneous results. And both will show you somewhere the records that are available with them online for Ireland. Ancestry is not quite so user friendly but can be navigated. Lastly I should mention that our own excellent (but under strain) National Library in its eResources section online (you need to register for a library card online) has freely available the Irish Newspaper Archive, Nineteenth Century British Newspapers and British Newspapers 1600-1950. And even more lastly, huge numbers of Irish went to Britain for work or to serve in the military or navy. You can find family members in British censuses, FreeBMD and military records at TNA (not necessarily online).

FMP has a reasonable run of Irish records including probate indexes, shipping, etc. FMP (except newspapers) is freely online at your library. Many of the records that some sites require payment for are also available online for free. Especially the site Irish Genealogy - http://www.irishgenealogy.ie/en/. It has some runs of parish registers including parts of Cork and Kerry, Carlow and Dublin City. Also the civil bdm registers from 1864 (and Protestant marriages from 1845). FamilySearch also has the same civil registrations, probate indexes and more. Information on relatives from Northern Ireland can also be searched for freely at PRONI. See information at https://www.nidirect.gov.uk/articles/archives-family-and-local-history. A nation-wide survey was conducted in the late 1840s into the 1850s called Griffith's Survey. It is also freely available at http://www.askaboutireland.ie/griffith-valuation/. Unless living in a small city tenement (and even them sometimes) very many of the population are listed either as a tenant or the immediate lessor (who could himself be sub-leasing). So, before paying to research in Ireland, narrow down what you can't find firstly online for free. I have been having the greatest fun searching Irish records these past few years when I was warned that Irish records had all been lost.
