I wrote the information I mentioned on a card and did not add any other information that might have helped make sense of it at a later time. You would think I had learned that by now but obviously not . You have helped me out some time ago with the Pendergast research. I am aware that there are many missing records of the time and area but someone found the marriage in a LDS record so I know that the marriage is recorded. I would be most interested in baptismal information from the 1840+ time period. I know that Michael and Winifred Pendergast had a son Martin and I am looking for a record of his baptism. I would also be interested in any photo's of the church that existed at the time my kin were living in the area. I would be glad to pay you for the photo's.

Behind the modern Killannin Church (in the townland of Pribaun) next to the current graveyard is an older Killannin Church. This was erected sometime in the 19c. The roof no longer remains. There is an older remains of a church in the old Killannin Graveyard in Killannin townland down a boreen on the opposite side of the road. There is also the remains of a church from the 6th c nearby. Killannin parish was originally in the diocese of Tuam. Its transfer to Galway diocese was met with violent resistance with the parish priest appointed by Galway diocese having to be supported by the armed forces based in Oughterard. I have a photograph or two of the ruins.

I have information about my GGF living in Kilmacduagh and Kilfenora parish. Also I have info that the parish was Killanin and the parish CHURCH was Immaculate Heart of Mary. The great grandfather was Michael Pendergast (in Ireland it was spelled Prendergast, I'm told) who married Winifred Healy in circa 1840+. Family lore has Michael from Ross Village...now renamed Rosscahill, west. I have a family member visiting Ireland this summer and would love to have a photo of the church where my GGF was married if the church still exists. Can anyone help clear up the confusion between what seems to be civil parish names and religious parish name(s) ? Maybe none of my information is accurate. Horrors! Any help will be much appreciated.
