Hi everyone. I have read thru this thread but can find no mention of web site or postal address for getting birth certs from Ireland. I have a probable birth in Kingston near Dublin, I believe) in 1853. Can anyone give me the "hows" of getting a cert please? Gerry |

Sorry, Gerry, but civil registration did not start in Ireland (there was neither south nor north then) until 1864. So before then, it is trickier! Joy |

Have a look, Gerry, in cyndislist(.)com - remove brackets - and the genuki website, and the rootsweb mailing lists and message boards for counties and surnames, and rootschat(.)com - post messages all over the place asking questions, and hopefully someone will be able to help. I do empathise! Joy |
