ROMAN CATHOLIC ARCHDIOCESE OF ARMAGH, 1846

PARISH PRIESTS, CURATES, PARISHES, and POST TOWNS

This pages differs from my 1836 R.C. parish listing in a number of ways. I have not tried to list the counties that the closest post town is found in and I have not tried to compare this listing either with the 1836 listing or the 1931 listing.

I have however, included extra information on the Diocese as found in the 1846 Roman Catholic Directory on convents and nunneries or academies if mentioned - or, as it is put in the directory - 'The State of Religion'

This archdiocese covers the following counties:
