Bob~       We put the Rathangan sacramental files on line a few years back at http://www.igp-web.com/IGPArchives       My husband's gg grandmother was Judith/Johanna/Judy PARLE.  She married fis,t Nicholas CLEARY who died young leaving her with small children.  Then, as was the custom his brother Patrick married her.  They had two more sons; John and Nicholas.  John was my husband's maternal grandfather. The CLEARY family had extensive holdings (although Catholic) in the area of the townland of Blackstone.  The descendant's still own it, raising thoroughbreds and sheep.  Some acreage was sold off a few years back.  The original house, renovated, still is on the property.  The current CLEARY family built a larger house about 25 years ago.  It is an absolutely beautiful area of Ireland.        The oral history has the land being owned originally by the PARLE family.  After the '98 Rising, a CLEARY married a PARLE, thus making it a CLEARY holding.  The timeline for our data does not quite match this story.  However, rusty old parts of guns were found in the thatch during the renovations so maybe a CLEARY on the run did find time to romance a PARLE.  Our CLEARY line from records appear to originate in the hills around Duncormick.       The postmistress of Duncormick is another cousin whose maiden name was O'BRIAN but she married a non related CLEARY!!  That position has been passed down through the years.       We placed the Baptismal records from approx. 1803 to the late 1900s on line.  There is a stretch of records from about late 1840s to mid 1850s missing.  They exist at the parish house but the priest at the time the Wexford Heritage was transcribing them, felt the books too fragile.  When we were gathering data for Irish Citizenship several years ago, we had to get my husband's grandfather's baptismal record which was for 1853.  Proof to us that they do exist       The marriages go to the mid to late 1890s from about 1803.        I have some history on the PARLE family re: their origins which I can upload to you if you are interested.  With the exception of this year, we try to be in Ireland a few times a year.  My family reside in Mayo and Jack's as stated, the townlands of Blackstone, Kilmore, Kilmore Quay, and Duncorkmick.       Hope the records help you in your search.
