  • Hi, 
    https://registers.nli.ie  is the site to use.
    ​from the map go to Munster, then Limerick.
    You will then see Knockany and Patrickswell.
    BUT, if you give me the names, I will search for you.

    ​TIPS
    Depending on the years, is where to look.
    ​1823 to 1837 Tithe records
    ​1837 ro 1864 Griffiths Valuation
    1821, 1831, 1841and 1851 Only a few Census records Depending on name
    ​1901 and 1911 Census records, more chance of finding info.
    ​Irish Genealogy 1864 Births Death and Marriages.
    All these are free.
    ​then the pay sites some more expensive than others.

    ​I hope this is a help
    Margot

  • Hi Margot
    Thank you so much for your reply. I am searching for my Great grest great Grandfather, Patrick Hourigan born circa 1802. His father , unconfirmed was John Hourigan . He lived in Dark Island but I believe he was born in Patrickswell. Any information that you are able to find would be greatly appreciated.
    Cheers
    Regards
    Margie

  • Hi Margie,
    ​I have searched the sites and the Church records are from 1806 plus.
    ​Who did Patrick marry?
    ​Did he stay in Ireland?
    Any childrens names...........a big help.
    Better to work backwards.
    Margot

  • Hi Margie, I see you have the Baptism Record for Jeremiah in 1843 in your tree.
    Where did you get this?
    ​I have been searching Patrickswell and can't see it. The page set up is different to what I see.
    ​Let me know where you got it please.
    ​Up to now I can't anything on the family, sorry.
    ​Thanks
    ​Margot

  • Hi Margot
    All of the children were born in Dark Island and I have been able to find their Baptismal records in Doon records. I was told however that their father, Patrick was from Patrickswell (not confirmed )
    Thank you so much for your efforts.
    Regards
    Margie

    Hi Margie,
    ​I have copied all this info. to a word doc.  I will be in Ireland in July, I have time to got to this area, before we book in to a hotel and see if I can find anything out for you.
    ​May be a headstone or something.
    I can't find info on Patrick Hourigan, the Church records statrt  1808.
    ​Tithe only John Hourigan's in early Tithe records are too far away from Patrickwell. 
    Cheers
    Margot
