I am looking for someone to possibly do some research for me in Armagh, Ireland. I am after a birth record dated 1832. Please contact me if you are interested. Thankyou, Kathryn

You won't find a birth record that early (civil registration for births began in 1864). The best you can hope for is a baptismal record, but you'll need to know in which church the person would have been baptised.

Author: canuckster1127 Surnames: Breen, McCann Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.britisles.ireland.arm.general/9310/mb.ashx Message Board Post: I'm tracing my family and have hit on some addresses in County Armagh. My gg Grandfather was William Breen who left Armagh about 1868 for Canada. He married Annabelle McCann in Rich Hill Church of Ireland on Dec 4, 1856. He had sisters named Mary Ann and Isabelle. Family History says William was from Battle Hill, County Armagh. Annabelle's father was Terrence McCann. William's father was Henry Breen and his mother Isabella (possibly Riddell). I have baptismal records from the Church of Ireland in Rich Hill that indicate that Henry Breen's address was Dromand Jones and that the McCann's were from Clonroot. The McCann's may have been from County Antrim near Belfast. Any help or direction that anyone can offer will be appreciated and reciprocated. Thanks!

Hi Toby, You have probably tried this already - but would it not be possible to get a photocopy of the reference from the National Archives in Dublin? The Crossle pedigrees are available there on microfilm for anyone who wishes to view them. I'm not sure about Watson, but I know someone did some work on the abstracts after Philip Crossle and his son. Sorry I can't help with the FHL films, though I can't see why they should be different. The Ulster Historical Foundation should have known exactly what you were looking for as the Crossle abstracts and pedigrees are a very important source of information for North of Ireland wills and families filling in some of the gaps caused by the fire of 1922. I think you should perhaps remind them of this! It isn't really very satisfactory if they charged a fee and failed to come up with the goods. Crossle supplied me with a family tree bringing my family back to Armagh in the mid 18th century, and lots of random notes in tiny (but still legible) handwriting. A eureka moment! Nicola

Author: TobyTNT Surnames: Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.britisles.ireland.arm.general/9308/mb.ashx Message Board Post: Can anyone enlighten me on the following National Archives Reference: Crossle/Watson/1/637? The FHL has 38 rolls of microfilm from this manuscript and its will abstracts (unavailable elsewhere), but its index does not mention Watson or reference the material in a similar fashion to the NA. I found this reference on the Origins site and tried to get data on this particular abstract from the Ulster Historical Foundation. After describing exactly what I wanted and paying the initial fee, I received a totally worthless report telling me about the great fire in 1922 (about which I was fully aware). They apparently had no idea of how to research the Crossle manuscript. I'm hoping somebody knows about this extremely useful repository of will abstracts so I won't have to go through all 38 rolls.
