    3. Folks, I spoke directly to the employees at IFHF after finding their phone number on their 'tipperary-excel.com' sight. Granted, you pay whether they find your family or not, but I found them to very helpful and willing to provide information on their foundation's resources. After speaking to them via phone and providing my e-mail address, and credit card info., I e-mailed what scant family details I had such as names and one birth date. I e-mailed back and forth with the same representative as she found some results for me, and I continued my search with them only after I was certain that this was my family. This was not an on-the-spot, instant results search. Several weeks passed before they got back with me. In the end, they were VERY generous with information, provided me with suggestions, and it was a great and productive experience. For 5. euros a search I got more than I expected. They provided to me some sibling information so I could decide if this was my family. Living thousands of miles from Ireland, with little chance of visiting in the near future, being able to communicate with a resident of the area provided even more insight into my quest. This is just another way to contact IFHF. Before I perused this route I had to contact my cell phone company and added overseas liberties for just one day (cost was only a couple of dollars), and notified my credit card company that I was authorizing charges to this one and only Foundation. This worked well for me, and whether they would have found my family or not in that first search, at least I was able to speak to someone about their resources at IFHF.

The OCLC number is 316363313. I have now copied the books (over 2200 pages !!!) and returned the originals......and am now in the process of re-binding the copies. The author was Secretary to the Board of Public Records. Although the author and most of his sources were Church of Ireland (perhaps still C of E at that time ???), the content doesn't seem show any bias in favor of the Established Church - in fact, what I have read so far seems quite sympathetic to the general RC population. The volumes contain information on 79 Parishes/Unions of the Established Church, 18 of which are in the Northern six-counties. They do not represent anything like totality of coverage of Ireland, and what parishes/unions are described don't seem to follow any pattern. For example, there are 10 Co. Cork parishes, but not a single entry for Kerry. Some parishes receive only 6 or 7 pages while most of them are 15 or so pages. Some parishes have townland maps, most from the Down Survey, and nearly all have individual townland information, such as acreages, proprietors, translations of townland name, etc. I would guess that the townland information could be helpful, as this data is from a period prior to the start of the Ordnance Survey.....and a decade before Griffith's Boundary Department started "operating" on the townlands and parishes and redefining (in some cases) the boundaries, etc. Here is the "Table of the Sections" for the books: "TABLE OF THE SECTIONS, According to which the account of every parish is arranged in this volume. I - The name of the parish, ancient and modern; its situation, extent, and division, climate and topographical description. II - Mines, minerals, and all other natural productions. III - Modern buildings both public and private, including towns, villages, gentlemen's seats, inns, &c. - the roads, scenery, and superficial appearance of the parish.

As it would be impractical for me to enter much of the information into e-mails, I tried to see if these volumes are available on-line. Google Books seems to have only volume 2, which seems odd. But perhaps it's because of my slow dial-up connection and have difficulty accessing sites meant for broadband access.

Volume 2 of this set contains the only entries for Co. Limerick - the parishes of Cahircorney [sic] and Kilfergus. Cahercorney get 17 pages of description, and it also includes the civil parish of Kilkellane (Kilcullane).
