    1. [NY-IRISH] Irish Catholic church records--where to get help deciphering
    2. VLB via
    3.   Since Irish Catholic baptism and marriage records came online free last year at http://registers.nli.ie/ people have needed help deciphering the old handwriting, in Latin or English.  The best site I know of is http://www.boards.ie/    It is free to join. It's based in Ireland and has many topic areas/boards. I had to sign up for 3 boards, genealogy and history being of the most interest to me.  On the genealogy board, there is a long-running thread called 'NLI parish registers decipher thread'.  Post your question there with an image if possible--easy to do.  A lot of very experienced people will jump in to help. Most members seem to be Irish so they know their way around Irish genealogy. And again, it's free.       Virginia
