Petunia:

Welcome to Ireland Reaching Out!

The RC church for the family was Castlegregory/Killiny and records start in 1828/1829 http://registers.nli.ie/parishes/0660

www.irishgenealogy.ie has the records for the children baptized starting in 1828. Timothy and Honora were born and married before records are available in that area. Also death records are not available until 1864. I looked for a civil death index records for Honora around 1865-1866 in the Dingle registration district. The closest was an 1868 record.

You could write to the General Register Office to get a copy of this record but I think I would wait until the Irish government adds more images to www.irishgenealogy.ie  Right now, death images start in 1891.

Thank you Roger for your assistance and for the clarification that of Castlegregory/Killiny. Yes, I will wait until General Register office adds more images! Also thanks for your tips!

Best to you and Happy Holidays!
