King's Co. (Offaly) Church of Ireland Records
« on: Wednesday 21 January 09 06:30 GMT (UK) »
Trying to find out if anything remains of the Kilbride parish's records.  Ancestors are from Clara town, am looking for Baptisms, marriages, burials, anything from 1860s and previous.  Would any records be in Tullamore Union or Tullamore's parish?  I was in touch with Eneclann genealogy and they wrote me back saying the RCB library for the CofI has Kilbride baptisms 1805-1999 but every other source I try to find says these records were destroyed in the Public records office fire in Dublin.

Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you

Hi MacGillean, I know the old Kilbride cemetery has a lot of archeology history attached to it, there are a few books wrote on it too & a few years ago they done a big clear up of the cemetery ,they also carried out a survey of everything in the cemetery, this was also to include any inscriptions of head stones which was to be published at a later date (I've not heard if it was published or not)The Offaly history group maybe able to help you out!Also you may find the parish records for Clara maybe worth trying to check out as it is all the one place,I know this info isn't really of much use but my one tip to you would be to post this on the Offaly boards & some one with Knowledge may be able to help you out,good luck -Nipy
