Good Afternoon

Welcome to Ireland Reaching Out and apologies for the delay in replying to your message. 

As you can see from the link below, Balrothery is a Civil Parish in Co. Dublin: http://www.irishtimes.com/ancestor/fuses/townlands/index.cfm?fuseaction=TownlandsInCivil&civilparishid=875&civilparish=Balrothery&citycounty=Dublin

Church of Ireland records begin in 1839. Records for the corresponding Roman Catholic Parish of Balrothery and Balbriggin begin in 1816. As I am sure you are aware, there are a lot of difficulties associated with a family history search in periods before parish records begin.

I assume you have searched Ancestry.com for your ancestor?s name in message boards and family trees posted there and that you are aware of this site?

See what you think and let us know if you find any further information.

Best of luck with your search
