The following is indexed according to the surname of the Groom. All spellings are as on the parish register. The townlands as named would seem to be part of a number of different civil parishes and whilst I have checked some townland names against those listed for county Kilkenny in the 1851 Townlands directory, I have not finished. In time, a table will be added to this set of parish records listing the various civil parishes involved and the different townland spellings. More indices will be added to this set of parish records in time.

In some cases, the placename was not given for either the Bride or Groom, it is possible that both were from the same place in these instances.

Mooncoin is listed as being the name of a Roman Catholic Union of a number of Civil Parishes. This means that the parish records, baptisms and marriages of people from townlands in those civil parishes should be found in the Mooncoin registers.

All references for the years mentioned 1789-1791 have been taken.

Mooncoin is listed as being the name of a Roman Catholic Union of a number of Civil Parishes. This means that the parish records, baptisms and marriages of people from townlands in those civil parishes should be found in the Mooncoin registers.

Note on the front of this parish register:

Parish Register of Rathkyran & Mooncoin
Commencing Feb 10th 1816
Being the year which the Rev. Nicholas Carroll was removed from Ballyragget to that of Rathkyran.

It may be that this was later called the parish register of Carrigeen and Mooncoin as listed in Grenham’s ‘Tracing your Irish Ancestor’s’, however, the first set of baptismal entries cover Rathkyran according to the note on the first page. Grenham gives the wrong film reference for this set of parish registers.

My comment on this film
Children’s names in columns on side of page. Town-land named
Difficult to read the main entries and pages have not been filmed in order. Months are mixed up and some pages have been filmed twice.

Aglish Civil Parish was included in the Roman Catholic (R.C.) Parish of Mooncoin

Ardera/Arderra Civil Parish was included in the R. C.Parish of Mooncoin

Ballytarsney Civil Parish was included in the R.C. parish of Moncoin (mooncoin)

Clonmore Civil Parish was included in the R.C. parish of Mooncoin

The townlands of Tobrid and Barrabehea are listed in this set of parish records and these are taken to be the townlands of Barranabehy and Tubbrid which belong to Tubbrid Civil Parish, Co. Kilkenny
