=== Introduction ===
==Introduction==


The Church of Ireland was decreed the State Church in Ireland in 1536 by an Act of the Irish Parliament. While members of the Church of Ireland were very much a minority, this granted broad powers to primarily the English settlers to be the ruling class. Among this ruling class, numerous records were created to document the laws enacted and to legitimize the displacement of the Catholic citizens. From this point forth, those not of the State Church (also known as the Established Church) began to slowly regain their privileges.

=== Christenings (Baptisms)  ===
===1600s===  


Children were usually christened (baptized) within a few weeks of birth, though some christenings of older children or adults are recorded. Parish registers provide at least the name of the person christened and the christening date. They usually record the name of the father and sometimes the first name of the mother. They may also record birth date, legitimacy, father's occupation, and the family's place of residence. In larger cities, registers may provide the family's street address.  
*'''1617''' Early attempt to require the registration of baptisms, marriages and burials. Efforts are widely ignored by 1620.
*'''1634''' 46th Canon of the Irish Church required the recording of “Christenings, Weddings, and Burials.” Copies of the records are to be returned to the Bishop of each Diocese.
*'''1660''' Restoration to the English Crown of Charles II. Conditions ease for Catholics.
*'''1661''' Reconstitution of Episcopal State Church – A separate commission also investigates Irish land ownership.


=== Marriages  ===
===1800s===  


Pre-1845 parish registers usually provide only the date of marriage and the names of the bride and groom. Beginning in 1845, parish registers also include the place of marriage; the marital status, occupation, and place of residence; both fathers' occupations; and the names of witnesses (possible relatives). If the father was deceased, that fact was sometimes noted.  
*'''1807''' pro forma registers instituted. The first are published by William Watson of Capel Street, Dublin. Registers were further improved in the 1820's. These standardized the recording of the information for births, marriages, and deaths.
*'''1832''' Irish Tithe Composition Act – provided for tithes to be paid to the State Church, the Church of Ireland.
*'''1869''' Disestablishment of the Church of Ireland as the State Church. All churches are to be equally recognized by the government.
*'''1875''' Act of Parliament proclaiming that the Church of Ireland parish registers are “public records” and as such must be deposited in the Public Records Office, Dublin. Parochial returns sent to the Bishops of each Diocese (bishop's transcripts) are also required to be deposited in the PRO, Dublin.


Couples were usually married in the bride's parish. Permission to marry was obtained in one of two ways:
===1900s===


*'''By banns'''. Couples were required by law to have the minister announce their intent to marry or post notice of their intent on the church door for three consecutive Sundays before the marriage could take place, unless a special license was obtained. This gave others time to object to the marriage.  
*'''1905''' Parish Register Society of Dublin begins the printed publication of Church of Ireland parish registers. They complete sixteen (16) before the destruction of the records in 1922 and abandon the project thereafter.
*'''By license'''. A couple applied to the proper church authority, usually the bishop of the diocese or the Archbishop of Armagh, for a license to marry. An allegation and a bond were drawn up. The '''allegation''' listed the names of the bride and groom, their ages, marital statuses, and intended place of marriage. The '''bond''' was made to insure that all the information given was valid. The license granted permission to marry. Most Irish allegations, bonds, and licenses have been destroyed. However, some abstracts and indexes of these records for various dioceses remain. The indexes include the names of the intended bride and groom and the year their license was issued. To find marriage license indexes and abstracts available at the Family History Library, go to the [http://www.familysearch.org/Eng/Library/FHLC/frameset_fhlc.asp Family History Library Catalog] and do a Place Search for 'Ireland' and select the topic of 'Church Records.' 
*'''1922''' Public Record Office (PRO), Dublin is destroyed by explosion and fire on 21st June during the Irish Civil War. Anti-Treaty forces had occupied the record office portion of the Four-Courts building for more than six-weeks.  By 1922, two-thirds of the extant Church of Ireland (1,006 parishes) had been deposited in the PRO for safe-keeping. The number of surviving Church of Ireland registers number 637 with copies of the destroyed registers made prior to deposit numbering 124 and the Public Record Office holding an additional 23 copies of registers. Only three of the known parochial returns survive.
*'''1939''' Representative Church Body Library (RCBL), the official library of the Church of Ireland located in Dublin, begins receiving Church of Ireland parish registers for preservation. As of 2006, the library held over 780 original parish registers or copies/transcripts, many of which pre-date Ireland’s civil registration which began in 1845.


=== Burials  ===
==Types of Records==


Burials usually took place in the deceased's parish within a few days of the death. Burial records give the name of the deceased and the date of burial. Sometimes they also give the deceased's age, place of residence, cause of death, and occupation. Occasionally a wife's burial entry will provide the name of the husband, and a child's entry, the name of the father. Stillbirths are sometimes recorded in the burial registers. Stillbirths are not, however, listed in christening records.
The records that will provide the most vital information include:


Some church records are in the collection of the Family History Library. The Irish Family History Foundation at [http://www.irish-roots.net www.irish-roots.net] is the coordinating body for a network of government approved genealogical research centres in the Republic of Ireland (Eire) and in Northern Ireland which have computerized millions of Irish names in genealogical records.
===Baptisms===


=== Other Church of Ireland Records  ===
Children were usually christened (baptized) within a few weeks of birth. Some christenings of older children or adults may also be recorded in the details. Parish registers provide at least the name of the person christened and the christening date and usually show father's full name, and mother's first name, and will also often include father's occupation. Place of residence may be included, but may not be very detailed. Earlier records usually included less detail.


'''Vestry Minutes'''
===Marriages===


The vestry is the presiding council of a parish. Minutes of vestry meetings often mention parishioners, appointments of parish officers, and other items related to the parish. Occasionally records of births, christenings, marriages, deaths, and burials are included in the minutes. They were divided between the ''Select Vestry ''and the ''General Vestry'', these minutes detail the workings not only of the religious business of the parish, but also the civil functions since they were the State Church. The Select Vestry were a group of Protestants who paid rates and levied small local taxes to support the maintenance of the Church and its officers. The General Vestry imposed a local tax (cess) to maintain local services such as road building/repair, street cleaning, fire brigades, and parish constables. The surviving lists provide a nice census substitute for the civil parish. Records for the poor of the parish and for those who are involved in the administration of the parish are also to be found among the Vestry Minutes.  
Pre-1845 parish registers usually provide only the date of marriage and the names of the bride and groom. Beginning in 1845, parish registers also include the place of marriage; the marital status, occupation, and place of residence; both fathers' occupations; and the names of witnesses (possible relatives). If the father was deceased, that fact was sometimes noted.  


'''Bastardy Bonds'''
Couples were usually married in the bride's parish. Permission to marry was obtained in one of two ways:


These&nbsp;were records of unwed mothers who were interviewed by the Churchwardens to determine the name of the father. In many instances, this may be the only clue to the parentage of an illegitimate child. In a number of cases, the Churchwardens were unable to persuade the mother to name the father and one can only suspect that there were instances when the wrong father was named.<br>
*'''By banns'''. Couples were required by law to have the minister announce their intent to marry or post notice of their intent on the church door for three consecutive Sundays before the marriage could take place, unless a special license was obtained. This gave others time to object to the marriage.
*'''By license'''. A couple applied to the proper church authority, usually the bishop of the diocese or the Archbishop of Armagh, for a license to marry. An allegation and a bond were drawn up.

To find marriage license indexes and abstracts available at the FamilySearch Library, go to the [https://www.familysearch.org/search/catalog/search FamilySearch Catalog] and do a Place Search for 'Ireland' and select the topic of 'Church Records.


'''Pew Schedules&nbsp;'''
===Burials===


These often provide a map of the location of the pews in the chancel and give the names of the parishioners who paid a fee for the pew and identify which pew&nbsp;they were assigned to for services.  
Burials usually took place in the deceased's parish within a few days of the death. Burial records give the name of the deceased and the date of burial. Sometimes they also give the deceased's age, place of residence, cause of death, and occupation. Occasionally a wife's burial entry will provide the name of the husband, and a child's entry, the name of the father. Stillbirths are sometimes recorded in the burial registers. Stillbirths are not, however, listed in christening records.

==Other Types of Records==


'''Parish Deeds'''
===Vestry Minutes===


The parish deeds&nbsp;are to be found both in the parish and in the Registry of Deeds, Henrietta Street, Dublin, Ireland. These are particularly useful for the tracing of prominent families prior to the beginning of the parish registers themselves. They are less significant for the general lay member. In some instances, parish property was sublet to tenants and the deeds in some rare examples may identify the&nbsp;names of tenants.<br>

Occasionally records of births, christenings, marriages, deaths, and burials are included in the minutes.

=== Locating Church of Ireland Records  ===
===Pew Schedules===  


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.  
These often provide a map of the location of the pews in the chancel and give the names of the parishioners who paid a fee for the pew and identify which pew they were assigned to for services.  


<br><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold">Heritage Centers</span>. Many church of Ireland parish records, as well as catholic parish records, some as far back as the 1790's, as well as census records, are being collected in repositories called Heritage Centers. 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 transcribed and indexed are currently available for on-line research at http://www.brsgenealogy.com/ or [http://www.irish-roots.ie www.irish-roots.ie] for several, but not all, counties. Persons' names on birth, marriage and other records can be located, but a fee is charged to see the full transcription of a record, which may contain much additional helpful information.<br>
===Parish Deeds===


Ministers were never required to send vestry minutes to Dublin for safekeeping. Consequently, most vestry minutes are in local custody, though some have been deposited at the National Archives, the Public Record Office of Northern Ireland, or other repositories.  
The parish deeds are to be found both in the parish and in the Registry of Deeds, Henrietta Street, Dublin, Ireland. These are particularly useful for the tracing of prominent families prior to the beginning of the parish registers themselves. They are less significant for the general lay member. In some instances, parish property was sublet to tenants and the deeds in some rare examples may identify the names of tenants.
