Many Church of Ireland registers were destroyed in the fire at the Public Record Office in Dublin in 1922. To protect against further loss or deterioration, most existing records have been filmed or photocopied and the originals or copies deposited in national repositories in Ireland. Some of the deposited church records are closed to the general public. To search these records, you must obtain written permission from the minister of the parish or the bishop of the diocese over that parish. | Many Church of Ireland registers were destroyed in the fire at the Public Record Office in Dublin in 1922.

Many Church of Ireland parish records, Catholic parish records, and census records are being collected into repositories called Heritage Centers. Many Heritage Centers are part of a country-wide system -- the Ireland Family History Foundation -- which has begun to transcribe and index millions of the records. The index and transcriptions are currently available for on-line research at [http://www.irish-roots.ie RootsIreland.ie] for several, but not all, counties. After you have registered on the web site, you can search for free, but a fee of 5 Euros is charged to see the full transcription of a record. | Many Church of Ireland parish records, Catholic parish records, and census records are being collected into repositories called Heritage Centers.
