University records - where are they???

[Katharine75]

Hi. Hoping someone might be able to tell me where an Irishman in the early 1800s might have attended university? I have a few children from the one family who appear in alumni dublinieses (?), but am missing a couple of siblings who I am sure must also have gone to university. I have seen alumni records for Cambridge online. Are there any other unis in Ireland to try?
 Also interested to know if someone who became a priest would study at university?
Also keen to know if there are any records for school teachers in Ireland from the 1820s through to 1860s?

someone who became a priest would study at Maynooth, very likely!

The salary books for National teachers are in the National Archive, but not held on-site  (or weren't, some years ago)
some for 1873 (a bit late for you) are available online at

I think the books start in the 1830s.

Thank you both for replied. I meant to say protestant priests. I presume maynooth is Catholic?

Ancestry World Archive Project has Ireland, School Masters and Mistresses, 1826
Irish Genealogy News says you can search the index but not view the images even if you don't have a sub, although I think you need a Free Account.

- Only university in Ireland at that time (until 1845) was Trinity College (AKA University of Dublin).
- Yes, at Trinity College. [As you us the word "priest", I am assuming that you mean a minister of the established church. Ministers of the Presbyterian persuasion would never be termed "priests", and would probably have been educated in Scotland].
- At least one, maybe more lists of school teachers were published in the British Parliamentary Papers, which are available online.
