Always thought the links and instructions on that site are a bit hard to find.
Click on the parish Than see where it say Click Here for a list of place names etc.
That click on the two Civil parishes names and it will give you a list of places.

Thank you for that list.I do not have a map as yet.It looks as though I am going to be very busy wading through all those!

[BallyaltikilliganG]

I have amended that list with what i am certain about with A's
Surely a Belfast chatterer knows more than me, please join in

Some others cane be eliminated- St Oliver Plunkett established 1976

The following are certainly in Co. Antrim-
Christ the Redeemer (Lagmore), Holy Cross, Holy Family, Our Lady Queen of Peace (Kilwee), St. Agnes', St. Anne's, St. Bernadette's (new building), St. Gerard's, St. Malachy's, St. Matthew's, St. Patrick's, St. Paul's.

The trouble in starting with a list from sources like Wikipedia is that it will be a list of current churches- some in the diocese might have been closed, moved (such as Holy Rosary) or recent opened (such as St. Oliver Plunkett- see above).

Just an observation, but I'm wondering if it's worth keeping an open mind on the Belfast birth references, I'm just not sure why Thomas Fearon, a labourer at the time of his marriage, would have moved to Rostrevor from his supposed birthplace Belfast.

Griffiths Valuation has a Matthew Fearon in a house, office and a couple of acres in the townland of Ballinliss in the civil parish of Killevy in County Armagh (print date 1864), which is near Rostrevor.
