Even though Dromtarrif may be a Cof I parish and a civil parish, in John Genhams 2nd Edition (1999) he quite clearly shows Dromtarrif as a Roman Catholic Parish. On page 240 he shows it's location in a map or RC Parishes in Cork County Northwest and on page 243 he gives details of where the various Roman Catholic records are held. I believe this detailed listing of Roman Catholic Parishes was not in Grenham's 1992 edition. Dromtarrif is situated in County Cork but it is in fact in the Dioces of Kerry.

Just a note... When I was in Sligo, the locals told me the cemetery/church ruins at Taunagh, Riverstown, was originally RC. Somewhere around famine time it was "taken over" by the CI. The CI added an entry and a plaque to their minister there, but inside the older part was a holy water fountain carved into the rock wall. That tells you that it was originally RC! There were both RCatholic and CI buried there, but in different areas. I encountered the same thing in Co. Sligo at Inver. I guess the message is, "Don't pass over records because they are listed under a different church denomination."
