Just joined the list. Does anyone know an easy (cheap!) way of accessing Cork birth records for 1801. I know that my 4th g grandfather was born April 11, 1801 in Cork. His father's name was listed as Hannegan, but his name was listed as James G. Hanegan. LDS records verifies via "Cork church records", but specific source and contact are not available. Arggggggh

I assume you found a reference on the IGI in which case you have already been very lucky, it's unusual to find any parish records this old (but not impossible). For the City you could try Cork City Ancestral Project c/o County Library Farranlea Road Cork City Ireland or Mallow Heritage Centre for the diocese of Cloyne http://www.mayo-ireland.ie/geneal/Cork.htm If the IGI record references a microfilm in the range 823801-9 then the record has been extracted from Casey and not direct from the parish register, if that is the case you should order the film rather than contacting the organisations above Michael ----- Original Message ----- From: "Kathryn L.
