Kathy~ Tyrone is a county in Northern Ireland. It is one of the 6 counties, which after the 1916 uprising and the Irish Civil War which followed until 1922, remained and to this day remain part of the UK. In 1864, Catholic births in Ireland became part of the Civil Records. However, I have found in researching that the RC Civil Records of 1864 are not as complete as following years became. Also, many records were destroyed during the Irish Civil War when the Four Courts came underfire. Mayo records and Tithe applotments are available at the Castlebar Library if you are in Ireland. They are not on line and do not provide certificates. Castlebar does have offices which provide the b/m/d records (from 1864) for a fee. At <A HREF="www.cmcrp.net"> www.cmcrp.net</A> there are some Mayo records, as well as other counties which people have donated from their own research. I have put the Rathangan Parish Records, County Wexford for B/M from 1801 to 1995 on the site for Cleveland Irish with Wexford links. My husband's maternal grandparents emigrated from Neimstown townland, Kilmore (grandmother Anna CLARKE) and Blackstone (grandfather John CLEARY) in the early 1870s. I was told there are about 7000 names in the record. The years approx. 1826 to 1856 are not included. The records were too fragile to give to a transcriber. However, they are at the church in Rathangan. Mary Ellen Chambers Lakewood Ohio
