Belfast - St. Anne's Cathedral Parish Records

Robyn,

Subscription site www.rootsireland.ie may be able to assist.

I see records for St. Anne's, Shankill 1846 and 1852.

Civil records in Ireland are from January 1st 1864 - Free - www.irishgenealogy.ie

There are various spellings of the name.

Regards,

There’s a copy of the records in PRONI in Belfast. Some years are also on the rootsireland site as mentioned by McCoy. The Cathedral may do a look up for you too, though there may be a fee for that service.

I am so sorry - didn't receive notifications of your replies - am most grateful.

I wrote to the Dean of the Cathedral, am happy to pay, did not receive a reply.

Just checked out PRONI Belfast, no luck.....

Have lots of information on my family, just crave more!

Thanks again, Robyn

Robyn,

A personal visit is required to access the PRONI records. (They are not on-line).  This link explains what records exist, parish by parish:

If you are unable to go yourself, you could employ a researcher. Researchers in the PRONI area: http://sgni.net

Thank you Elwyn, that makes it hard - your advice is.much appreciated, Robyn
