Oh that would be TOO easy.....Many parish registers are "held locally" which means some member of the congregation has them in their house, so you must find out who has them, where they live then try and get to see them if the person has time to even show them! Was talking to someone recently in Co Monaghan who mentioned an elderly woman who used to have the registers in her home for a now closed church, she died, the children have neither the time or interest in them and they are now stored in a box in the attic..probably never to see the light of day ever again.
