Clontuskert Roman Catholic Parish,
Diocese of Clonfert,
Co. Galway,
Ireland.

National Library of Ireland microfilm ref 2431.  LDS microfilm ref 1279215, items 1-2

The parish records for this parish begin in 1827. Listed as 2nd October, 1827 to 20th December 1800 (a modern transcript).

After that note, a listing of original records on the microfilm a gap is shown.  For those records they show 2nd Oct, 1827 to 4th Oct, 1868, and then a gap of about 18 months.  The records begin again on 2nd March 1870 and go to 5th Dec 1880.

The fact that there are two different dates of ending might be that there are two sets of records on the microfilm.  I did not look as I was not aware of these differences so, another days work another time.

I transcribed the names of all children and parents from the first year of records (I dealt with the transcript which was easy to read).  A little more than the first year, I included up to the end of Jan 1828, i.e. October 1827-January 1828.

The records are in Latin, which means that the first names were given in Latin (generally).  Place names were given.

n.g. = not given
