Codd Byrne

Hi Tom,

Thank you very much for your message and for sharing this helpful information. I hope that someone with information on on your GGGrandfather makes a connection with you and helps you to further your research.

According to the Irish Times website Rathnure and Templeudigan form a Roman Catholic parish in Co. Wexford:

Here is a link showing the civil parishes that are part of the RC parish:

You don?t mention any dates in your message so it is difficult to know what time frame you are looking at, however have you tried looking in the land records to see if you can find any record of Tom?

I found a Thoms Codd in the Tithe Applotment Books (1823-38) in Carrick and St. Peter?s parishes:

There were quite a few Thomas Codd?s recorded in the later Griffith?s Valuation (1848-64):
