Hi Terry,

 

Thank you for your message.

 

Do you know what religion the family were?

 

Unfortunately, if they were Roman Catholic, records do not begin in Dingle parish until c. 1823 which is too late for you. The Irish Times website shows what records are available there. Follow this link to see:

If the family followed the Church of Ireland, check http://ireland.anglican.org/about/42 and http://www.nationalarchives.ie/  for information on records.

 

The local studies department in Co. Kerry library may be able to give you some further advice. Here is a link to their contact page:
