Fullerton and derivatives

MayoCrossmolina (Mayo)

Hi, I am looking for information on Richard Fullerton born c1782, married Lucinda (?) born c1787. Marriage took place in/ before 1811. The family emigrated to Canada around 1840 although it is possible some of Richards children born pre 1811 may have stayed in Ireland but I think this unlikely. Richard Fullerton paid taxes in this parish in 1833. I have family records forward from 1842 so am interested in pre this date. The family originally came from Scotland however I do not know how many years this branch had been in Ireland so any info at all would be helpful. Many thanks in advance for any information. Regards, Bev

Church of Ireland parish registers for the period up to 1870-are public records. Registers are available for about one third of the parishes, however many were destroyed in the Public Records Office in Dublin in 1922. Most are still held by the local clergy, although some are in the National Archives of Ireland and others are in the Representative Church Body Library in Dublin. A list of all surviving registers is available in the National Archives. http://ireland.anglican.org/about/42 and http://www.nationalarchives.ie/.  The Anglican Record Project is has created an index to their records: http://ireland.anglican.org/cmsfiles/pdf/AboutUs/library/AngRecord/bunclodyunionindex.pdf
