I emailed three researchers from Dublin, listed by the National Library of Ireland, requesting a search in the Klonakilty baptism records, which start at 1809, for the surname POWER (not common in this area), up to 1825. I consider it most discourteous that after one month, not one has bothered to acknowledge my request, even if to politely decline doing the work. This is in marked contrast to the unfailing courtesy and prompt attention I've received from the staff at the National Library itself. Dr Bernard Ince England email: bernard.ince@uk.bosch.com

Maybe the problem is that Dublin researchers do not recognize Klonakilty. It should be Clonakilty. Bill Fahy
