Irish Genealogy Tips
Civil registration of births, marriages and deaths began in Ireland in
1864. Before that you must use other sources to find/verify information,
see ~irlwat/instruct.htm"http://www.rootsweb.com/~irlwat/instruct.htm
Registration of non-Catholic marriages began in 1845 in Ireland.
Registration of births, marriages and deaths, regardless of religion,
began January 1, 1864. The obligation to register these events rested on
the public and failure to do so carried hefty fines. Certificates for
births, marriages and deaths for all of Ireland until 1922 are housed in
Dublin. Belfast has the records for Northern Ireland from 1922 to
present. Clues to family history and genealogy are found in the civil
records. The occupation or title gives clues to the family's lifestyle.
The family historian may also use occupational clues to find additional
information, either in general or specific to the family. Guild records,
apprenticeship records, military regimental records, land records,
borough records, and other sources may be useful. Probate, peerage
books, and land records are sources if there is a title involved. If the
birth or death occurred in the workhouse look for records under the
Irish Poor Law.
Birth certificates include the date and place of birth; the name; the
sex; the name, surname and residence of the father; the name, surname,
maiden surname of the mother; the rank, profession or occupation of the
father; and the name and qualifications of the informant, usually a
family member. A given name was not obligatory, so some entries are
Kelly, Male or Clarke, Female. The FHLC holds microfilm copies of the
index and certificates for 1864-1955.
Marriage certificates include the date and place of marriage; groom's
name, age, marital status, occupation or title, and residence; bride's
name, marital status, age, occupation or title, and residence. The names
of the fathers of both parties and their occupations or titles are given
which makes them particularly relevant to genealogy. The church and the
names of two witnesses are also listed. Witnesses to the marriage are
commonly family members and may add clues to family linkages. Full age
indicates that the person was at least 21 years old.
