    3. Well there are plenty of places incl http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php, Great War Forum etc and depending on which way in time you want to go... Looks like you already had that Marriage Cert and as has been said many times one is better off disclosing what they have as it saves others using up their time and Internet allowance looking for things already known and also easier to find things based on what is known.. It wouldn't take a genius to find Moffatt descendants around today especially those of the Rev's sister and am surprised the Methodist archives didn't say who the Rev's parents were or the address he was at when he entered training.... As for an equivalent place... there isn't anything close to FG!! Tipperary I believe is pretty tightly "controlled" by the Genealogy centre there using RootsIreland stuff which you can read up on and decide for yourself on reliability..... http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php?topic=670189.0 Civil Reg Indices are back on line again, plus there are the Irish records on LDS, all the RC Parish records are due for release shortly which will be massive!! The cost an initial ASSESSMENT is €150.00 at Genealogy centre here and you're looking at almost €400 and that's just for Male line http://www.leitrimroots.com/research-services/index.html for stuff that is online (Census, Griffiths, Tithes, Pension Apps, etc etc) and records coming on line.. so you'll need a big budget if you have a few to do.. Given that the male line is what you get then you'll need brothers for the Rev if any... whereas you won't get the Rev's sister's line which is easier to follow. You have the Rev's career... were there any write up of the Parishes he was at? I found one on mine and wrote to Parish who then told me where he went and within 3 days I had 6 generations right up to present incl. g/stones in Canada just by following clues, Census etc.... There is just so much on line now it's almost impossible not to find people but some counties like Tipp keep records very inaccessible to people and I think Cavan is the same... "you pay up or else!" One problem you have is that Irish people don't like making it known that one of theirs was in the British Army despite 1000's dying during the War.... If you are only looking for descendants who were Irish and died as recently as 1915 then all that should be on line.. same if they were born after Civil Reg and there were kin left in Ireland... Just based on the Rev's sister that line is a doddle up to 1936 and online stuff after that is limited for many reasons... finding the Rev's g/stone (and there probably is one!) could be very beneficial if one knew where he was buried so Kabristan might be worth checking... as are Moffett letters!
