Hi cuz Yes I had that, just thought it would be great to see the hand written record. Still trying to figure out the notation on the side I have to say as much as I have admired and appreciated riobard's work, I am even more impressed after seeing those records as I know he has transcribed all of them. Riobard's annals of beara are still the very best information out there. I so wish Boston would put his research on line! I am guessing he gave them all the records not in his books. Hope to do more research this year, I have not done anything for 4 years, how time gets away from us.

You're getting further than I have been able. I've only been able to get to the home page and have no idea how to proceed from there. I see a place to look up parishes only I'm supposed to know the Parish and I don't. That's about as far as I've been able to go. Am I going to the right site? Thanks so much for your info and your help. Loretta McDermott McGinn In a message dated 7/10/2015 9:19:57 P.M.

If you put in Castletownbera Cork it brings up the parish of Catletownbere Kerry and Cork. If you click on Baptisms it starts with Baptisms 1831-1826. You have to scroll down until you reach Page 12, Feb 1850-Nov 1851. The first column gives the first name and date of baptism, the next column gives the parents names. You need to look at both pages -- on the left and on the right. There do not seem to be many for 1850.

I'm going to Ireland later this year and planning stay extra time in Dublin to do research. (wish I could go down to the Beara Peninsula where my ancestors are from but logistically and time wise can't make it). Anyway was planning to go to the National Library of Ireland and the National Archives of Ireland to do research.  Great the Catholic registers are online - plus have been using the Irish Genealogy site too for lots of info. I will look up as much as I can before I leave too. Which place have you found to be the most helpful in your research.  I've been searching their sites to see what records they and researching their sites but any tips and info you can provide will be helpful.   I'm hoping to search some death records of ancestors too. My ancestors from the Beara Peninsula are Denis Sheehan and his wife Mary Downing, his son Denis Sheehan married Ellen Spring and they had my great grandmother - Georgina Sheehan.  Thanks.

[Oops I didn't finish writing my email!!] Keep in mind that in Latin, the spelling of the words and names is affected by whether the person is feminine (typically ends with an A) or masculine (typically ends in UM), or if the name is the the subject of the sentence or the object!

So that is why Michael is spelled differently twice: with the UM meaning he is the subject of the baptism sentence, and with IS which is the object (I think?).

Yes, the latinization of the names can lead to misinterpretations for sure! Michaelum (for Michael) when hand written can be misinterpreted as Nicholas! I had this occur in my mother's family from Leitrim, which actually caused a falling out with another genealogist who was firm in his interpretation. From my book: The first Cooke mentioned in the Cloone Parish records is Michael Cooke, the son of Michael and Catherine McCabe. The record, in Latin, reads “In Sunaghmore bapt. Michalem Filum Micahelis Cook et Catharena McAbe; Jacobus et Sara McQuillan Susceptorabus.” Filum means ‘son of’, Susceptorabus means ‘sponsors’, and ‘et’ means ‘and’. The priests were not consistent with their Latin spellings of given names or general words. In Part III, where godparents are mentioned, I’ve left the surname spellings as the priest entered them into the record.

Looks like alot of it is in Latin.  What's interesting is I have ancestors named Denis and they are written as Dionysios which googling says in English means Denis and says it's a Greek personal name  From: Reg Volk via <beara@rootsweb.com> To: kerstentm <kerstentm@snowcrest.net>; "beara@rootsweb.com" <beara@rootsweb.com> Sent: Thursday, July 9, 2015 8:13 PM Subject: Re: [BEARA] Irish Catholics can now trace ancestry online back to 1740s Yes, Chrome works but I honestly cannot read hardly any of this.  I am in Cork county, Caheragh parish, Dromorneen townland, looking for Regans...anybody?

Yes, my great grandfather Denis Twomey from somewhere in Cork was married in Grass Valley, California in 1870 - his marriage record is in Latin, so his name is Dionysius in the church record.

I am finding there are records that I was able to find at the library that are not included here. So I know they exist. Anyone else having this issue? I am not finding any problems with county cork.

Here is the link, in case it isn't clear: http://registers.nli.ie/ As for toolbars, make sure you have your java script running and that you aren't blocking any other add-on that might be required. They do show a table of contents at the beginning, at least for my Leitrim parish of Cloone. There was a random 1820 baptism page (the very first records) in the middle of the book, but they placed the image of it at the beginning of the baptisms (which seemed to start only at 1823), so that was great to see.

I have no issue with scanning them, missing records always show up that way. I've pretty much explored the indexed records already. Just need to be able to read them. I'll try looking for the toolbar a little later today.

The one problem with this is that, although the records have been digitized, they are not indexed, so it will be some time before they are easy to follow. I expect there will be a call for volunteers to help index them. As of now, once you find the correct parish, it is much like scanning a microfilm to try to find the record you are looking for. They are in the order they were entered into the ledgers, which is neither alphabetic, nor necessarily by date. Just keep that in mind as you search. If the history of this sort of stuff is any guide, it may be a few months before effective finding aids come on line. Happy hunting! Chuck Weinstein Bellport, NY Cmw521@earthlink.net
