Title: Original Bray Parish Church records (not catholic) - 1880.
Post by: Sharron__ on Saturday 13 April 19 00:59 BST (UK)

Just wondering if the original records are available anywhere? 

I found my 2 x Gt Aunts marriage record on the Irish Genealogy website but can't decipher the first name of one of the witnesses.  I also am wondering if the surname was mis-transcribed from Harrington to Barrington. 

So I thought if I could find the originals maybe I could figure it out!

Thanks in advance.

Find the church on this list and see if the records survive

There are plans to put the registers online but the project has only just started so may be quite a while before they go live.

If you are near Bray, the library in Ballywaltrim on the Boghall Road has index cards with transcripts of the available marriages, births and deaths from all the local churches for this time period.

You could ask for help on the deciphering board.
