Hi everyone again. After this message appeared on the list I received some more very valuable information which I have added to the end of this message along with the senders name who provided this info. Here is some useful info to look at before you decide to pay a visit to your local LDS Family History Centres. Hopefully, by doing the ground work and getting the correct Title of the document and the Microfiche number of the records that you want to look at before your visit will save you a lot of time. This site lists every record that is stored at the LDS centre in Salt Lake City. Utah, USA. All you have to do is spend a little time tracking it down and then hopefully you will be well prepared when you decide to go and visit your local LDS Centre. There is a vast amount of Irish material stored here on Microfiche. The official web site for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints for FAMILY SEARCH.ORG is located at: http://www.familysearch.org/Eng/default.asp Here you can search the Family History Library Catalogue to find out the Microfiche number of the record you are wanting to search at your local LDS Family History Centre.

Utah, USA. These centres provide access to most of the microfilms and microfiche in the Family History Library to help patrons identify their ancestors. Everyone is welcome to come to the centres and use Family History Centre resources. Here is some valuable additional information which was supplied by Linda Babin from Louisiana, USA Hello List members, As Michael pointed out, the Family History Library Catalog is online, and is a great place to find what information they have, also, if your Family History Center is one of the smaller ones,I suggest you call before you go, and if they don't have the film or microfiche there, they will normally be happy to order it for you for a very nominal fee, I've always been able to pay the fee when I went to view the material, and it's normally not more than a couple of dollars in the U.S. Not every FHL has every piece of material that is held by this vast resource, so calling ahead insures that the material you want to use is there, and also, there are some materials that can not be viewed anywhere other than the Salt Lake Library. If the material that you want to check can't be sent to your local library, normally they can find someone in the Salt Lake area that will check for your information for you. My personal experience has been that they are most helpful, and will go out of their way to help. Good luck with your research!
