Here is the email I received about the primary school information. I hope this helps someone in their research. If I am able to get any records for the schools that my relatives went to, I will post them on Lindel and Bob's sites. Janice Friel Further to your e-mails below, the school records for Donegal held by the National Archives do not include those schools listed in your letter. Records of schools are actually the property of the boards of management of the schools and, unless deposited with an archives, can remain in the custody of the school. The records of schools in Donegal received as donations to the National Archives by the Department of Education and Science are to be found on our website at _http://www.nationalarchives.ie/topics/Nat_Schools/ns.html_ (http://www.nationalarchives.ie/topics/Nat_Schools/ns.html) while those received directly from the schools are to be found at _http://www.nationalarchives.ie/topics/Nat_Schools/schools.html_ (http://www.nationalarchives.ie/topics/Nat_Schools/schools.html) . If the schools in which you are interested cannot be found in these lists, I suggest that you contact either the Donegal County Archives, which also collects national school records (contact details on website at _http://www.donegalcoco.ie/services/communityculturalenterprise/Archives+Service/archivescollect ion.htm_ (http://www.donegalcoco.ie/services/communityculturalenterprise/Archives+Service/archivescollection.htm) ) or the schools concerned, if they still exist.
