Oops Sheila, You are correct on both counts. Joyce House on Lombard Street. However, my time in Dublin was so limited, I tried to do all my index look ups before I went. I wanted to spend as much time in the Library as possible. I would have loved to have paid a set rate for photocopies of the certs, but they told me no..... 5 was the limit I'm terribly sorry if I confused anyone! Claire in MA

To Claire I don't remember a limit on the number of certs - but then I didn't find many I wanted to have copied, so maybe that is why. Of course, you can always identify the copies you need while you are there and order them by post. I can't remember the cost but no doubt that can be picked up from the web. You can always order a copy of the entry first, to identify the person, before you order the certificate. Obviously you still have to pay (always in Euros - which even we find difficult from the UK). If it is not an appropriate entry, you save on the cost of a certificate. As I have already explained, it is some time since I was there and ordered certificates but, in 2000, I ordered 3 certificates by post and they cost £16.50.
