I have the same problem.  My GrGf was born in Cork ca. 1807-1815, with brothers born in 1795 and 1800-1809.  I have yet to find a church record for any of them.  There are some Cork records from the 1700's on the site, but there's never been a "hit" to my relatives.  I'm still waiting for the western and southern Cork records to post.  In the meantime, I try not to drive myself crazy over these early records...chances are they disintegrated from being handled/moved around.    Happy hunting, Trish Daly

Oh ya and with the Riordan there are so many of them all over Ireland!!! ________________________________ From: Patricia <dalytoo@sbcglobal.net> To: irl-cork@rootsweb.com Sent: Mon, September 20, 2010 1:13:15 PM Subject: Re: Old Parish Records in Cork I have the same problem.  My GrGf was born in Cork ca. 1807-1815, with brothers born in 1795 and 1800-1809.  I have yet to find a church record for any of them.  There are some Cork records from the 1700's on the site, but there's never been a "hit" to my relatives.  I'm still waiting for the western and southern Cork records to post.  In the meantime, I try not to drive myself crazy over these early records...chances are they disintegrated from being handled/moved around.    Happy hunting, Trish Daly ------------------------------- To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to IRL-CORK-request@rootsweb.com with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message

Trish - what townland and surname are you looking for? I have 150 pages of parish records for West Cork - from around Skibbereen and Baltimore.
