Hi Kerry and all those other listers planning trips to Kerry. My husband and I are also planning a trip in October 2008 to Killorglin in Kerry and other parts of Ireland following the ancestral links. In my preliminary research I have found that it is necessary to get the prior permission of the Bishop of Kerry before accessing Roman Catholic parish records - even the microfilms in the National Library. I suggest that you contact the Bishop and / or the local parish well ahead if you are looking for RC records. The Diocesan web site, www.dioceseofkerry.ie <http://www.dioceseofkerry.ie/> , has a good map of all the parishes and links to contact the Bishop and each of the parishes. You just have to click on the parish on the map on the Parish Index page to find the addresses. I have enjoyed this thread - lots of good tips for travelling! Regards Jan Daly Sydney, AUS
