Who to contact?

Would anyone know who I could contact regarding baptism records from 1898 in St Munchins RC church?

To look up a record?
You could search RootsIreland
http://ifhf.rootsireland.ie/generic.php?filename=centres/ifhf/sources.tpl
Just put Limerick in the search box and you can see what records survive.
You can take out a 24hour or longer sub.

Some particular question?

Thanks Sinann, am trying to find the names of baptism sponsors for my grandfather and siblings. I got his birth record (1898) from RootsIreland. I'll send off a query to the parish.

If you already have a sub to RootsIreland why not just look for his baptism as well.

Sinnan, I no longer have a sub to RootsIreland. My grandfather was the first of 16 children and on IFHF  I have  found only birth records for 12 of them, baptisms not available.

I didn't know they did birth records, I thought it was only baptisms etc. As a general rule (always exceptions) their church records stop at 1900.
Hopefully Maggsie will have some luck.
