Hello All! I will be in Ireland for a week starting on March 24th. My more recent family were from Ballylanders and Cullane- County Limerick. Late 1800s/early 1900s. Does anybody know if there is somewhere in the area where I can find records that wouldn't be available to me online? My GG granparents were married in the Catholic Church in Ballylanders in 1881 (cert issued in Mitchelstown), Bridgit Mackey and William Condon)- but it doesn't appear that the church is still standing to visit.
It's my understanding (thanks to Ireland XO!) that William returned to Ireland, leaving his family in Amercia, and died in the Limerick Asylum in 1906 (softening of the brain according to the death record attached). Believe this is a hospital now. I would like to know about of the family fo either that stayed in Irleand.
Thanks for any info!

Jen:
The current church in Ballylanders is the Church of Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary https://cashel-emly.ie/church/ballylanders/church-of-assumption-of-bles…
The church should have post 1900 church baptisms and marriages which are not available online (Roots Ireland has records thru 1900).
Have a great trip!
