Fedamore baptism record? COMPLETED
« on: Thursday 22 January 09 12:25 UTC (UK) »

I'd like to obtain the RC baptism record for my gg grandfather, Jeffrey Keating, baptised 1808 in Fedamore. I've just discovered that the National Library in Dublin has these records - is there anyone who can help with a lookup? I know his father's name was also Jeffrey - I'm looking for the name of his mother.

Apologies in advance if this is an impossible request - I'm not familiar with Irish records or how easy they are to access.

the Irish Family History Foundation website has parish records for Co. Limerick :
 
  http://www.irish-roots.ie/

these are in the form of transcripts, the index search is free - it costs €5 to view a record detail.

The original film should be available at the National Library in Dublin - www.nli.ie - Diocese of LIMERICK, parish Fedamore film number P.2409

Bapt. & Marr. Oct. 29, 1806 - July 16, 1813
Baptisms Jan. 1, 1814 - Jan. 29, 1822
Marriages Jan. 9, 1814 - Nov. 26, 1825
Baptisms July 30, 1854 - Dec. 25, 1880
Marriages Aug., 1854 - Dec. 27, 1880

looks like the baptism of Jeffrey would be very close to the start of the records!

Hi Shane,

Thanks for your reply. The IFHF site is where I found the reference :-) I don't like to use my credit card online (past experience). I emailed them and asked if I could ring and order over the phone but apparently they don't have that facility. Then I found the National Library has the records on film so I was hoping sks was going there and could do a lookup for me :-)

There is only one Jeffrey Keating born 1808 on the Foundation website

You should give it a try with your credit card- it is well worth it!!

Church Baptism    Keating    Jeffery    1808    Co. Limerick

I found some of my family members there & had no problem with credit card payments.

Good Luck!

Hi Jila,

Thanks for the words of encouragement. :-)

I was able to obtain the baptism record by emailing the parish priest who was very helpful :-)

Regards

Great!

You are lucky (or I guess I am unlucky) as I have email the Priests several times & never get a reply?!

What other surnames are you searching for?
