Look-up in Cork Register's Office
« on: Friday 11 July 14 16:05 BST (UK) »
Hi,

I will be attending the Cork Register's Office in early August, doing family tree research.  If anyone wishes me to look up an entry for them, please forward them....giving Parish/area, names of parents etc. and rough dates/years.

Hi Mary

I shall be visiting Cork in mid August (from New Zealand). If time allows I maybe able to visit the Registry Office. I would appreciate advice as to location and opening times for this office.

Hi Pat,

In recent days I found a link to all the Irish Civil Records online (free).  A huge resource.  This development is only recent. 

http://churchrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/     This site has parish records as well as Civil Records.

Many thanks  Mary for the link.  I shall now be able to do more research regarding the possible resting places of my grandparents' relatives. As a result I may know which Churches and burial places to visit.  The more research I do before my visit frees up time to visit those locations in Newmarket, Meelin and Kiskeam.

Hi Pat,

Cork consists roughly of 2 dioceses....1) Cork and Ross 2) Cloyne.  The parishes of Newmarket and Meelin are in the diocese of Cloyne.  The link for that is http://www.rootsireland.ie/ .  Unfortunately, there is a fee for that sight.  The previous link was for the parish records of Cork and Ross.
Hopes this helps

I presume when your visiting the Cork Office you have an appointment to view the records??? The records aren't open to the public, there is as far as I'm aware about a years waiting time to get an appointment...

the new records online are invaluable to research now though!

Only came across the online records the other day.  A huge resource. Using them to refine my search in the Registers Office.

Yes, I do have an appointment.  13 months later.....long wait, but will be so worth it.
