Val, I am talking about the Irish records on Find My Past World (which should be the same as FMP Ireland). I agree that in the past I have never been able to find anything there, but now I am in love with them! Today I found 3 or 4 possibilities of a baptism for my great-grandmother, Nora (Lynch) Fee in Limerick. The only clue I had was that the Irish census showed her place of birth as Limerick and her age. But where in Limerick? Today I just put in Nora Lynch, Limerick, Born 1860 +/- 5 years. I got about 10 results and was able to eliminate half because of names that have never reappeared in this family again such as Michael and William. I was focusing on parents names John and Nora based on the naming pattern AND the fact that I believe I found her parents in CT, but I need to prove them. So now I have possible maiden names for the mother I think to be hers. Now, if I can find a date of death and get her death certificate (and it matches one of these) I will have the right family. One of the records even gave the parents' parents' names! If that is the one, I will be dancing a jig! I think I still remember how. Here is what worked for me. First, sign in with your FREE account BEFORE doing and searches (otherwise you will need to repeat the search). Look on the left side to make certain that you are searching IRELAND records. You can also narrow it more by selecting BIRTHS, MARRIAGES, & DEATHS. You will still get other results, such a civil births, marriages and deaths; just be sure to only click on the “Parish Registers” results to avoid getting the option to upgrade.
