Roman Catholic Parish Records
List of Roman Catholic Parish Records available for Belfast City
This is a list of as many names and variations of names for each of the Roman Catholic Parishes of Belfast City with a list of ‘approximate’ dates that Roman Catholic Parish records are available for. Sometimes there is a year, or a few years difference between the period of baptisms being recorded and the period of marriages. The word approximate has been used because there may be gaps between the years given in this group but you will see the differences if you go to the National Library of Ireland web site and ‘read’ through the records yourself.
These Catholic parish registers can be viewed online at the National Library of Ireland web site and this is the link to the search page which will bring you to the records
