*'''Registration Districts'''<br>The 1863 Births, Marriages and Deaths (BMD) Act which established civil registration in Ireland required the establishment of civil registration districts. These were based upon the Poor Law Unions and each had a ''superintendent'' who oversaw the registration of BMD in his area. See the maps of Poor Law Unions in Mitchell’s ''Atlas''. | *'''Registration Districts'''<br>The 1863 Births, Marriages and Deaths (BMD) Act which established civil registration in Ireland required the establishment of civil registration districts.

*'''Dioceses - Catholic and Church of Ireland'''<br>Both the Church of Ireland (Anglican) and the Catholic Church had a comprehensive system of dioceses across the whole of Ireland. Each diocese was headed by a bishop and comprised a number of parishes headed by ministers or priests. The two church diaconal systems were not coterminous and frequently overlapped county boundaries. Maps of Church of Ireland dioceses can be found in Mitchell’s ''Atlas''. Roman Catholic dioceses are complex and are also indicated in Mitchell’s''Atlas''. | *'''Dioceses - Catholic and Church of Ireland'''<br>Both the Church of Ireland (Anglican) and the Catholic Church had a comprehensive system of dioceses across the whole of Ireland.
