Even though the births were recorded in Irvinestown, the parents may not have necessarily lived in Irvinestown itself, but in a nearby townland. Each of the indexes comes with a Latter Day Saints microfilm source. The films can be ordered from your local Family History Center. The indexes follow: HUMPHRIES, Ann Birth Gender: Female Birth Date: 23 Sep 1870 Birthplace: 169, Irvinestown No 1, Ferm, Ire Recorded in: Fermanagh, Ireland Collection: Civil Registration Father: John HUMPHRIES Mother: Ann GRAHAM Source: FHL Film 101211 Dates: 1870 - 1872 ______ HUMPHRYS, Alexander Birth Gender: Male Birth Date: 23 May 1870 Birthplace: Irvinestown No 1, Ferm, Ire Recorded in: Fermanagh, Ireland Collection: Civil Registration Mother: Catherine HUMPHRYS Source: FHL Film 101206 Dates: 1870 - 1872 ______ HUMPHRYS, Mary Birth Gender: Female Birth Date: 1 Mar 1871 Birthplace: 191, Irvinestown No 1, Ferm, Ire Recorded in: Fermanagh, Ireland Collection: Civil Registration Father: Edward HUMPHRYS Mother: Elizabeth BIRNEY Source: FHL Film 255811 Dates: 1871 - 1872 ______ HUMPHRYS, Thomas Birth Gender: Male Birth Date: 23 Jun 1871 Birthplace: 165, Irvinestownnoi, Ferm, Ire Recorded in: Fermanagh, Ireland Collection: Civil Registration Father: Thomas HUMPHRYS Mother: Jane ARMSTRONG Source: FHL Film 255826 Dates: 1871 - 1872 ______ HUMPHRYS, William Birth Gender: Male Birth Date: 6 Jun 1873 Birthplace: Irvinestown, No 1, Ferm, Ire Recorded in: Fermanagh, Ireland Collection: Civil Registration Mother: Catherine Humphrys Source: FHL Film 255876 Dates: 1873 - 1874 ______ I also found several entries for Humphreys in Irvinestown at the free Latter Day Saints International Genealogical Index at the following website: http://www.familysearch.org/Eng/Search/frameset_search.asp?PAGE=igi/search_IGI.asp&clear_form=true Once at the above site, just type in the last name Humphreys, select British Isles in the "Region" drop down box, then select Ireland in the Country drop down box, and finally select Fermanagh in the county drop down box.
