Ireland / Re: Belfast records Look up?

Thank you both for your help.
I have, in the last couple of weeks, been able to find out a little (marriage date of grandparents) from some info my mother in law sent to me. I don't think she knew what was in the boxes she sent! They were married in Muff and my husband has spoken to the rector there who has confirmed the entry in the marriage register so we have sent for the certificate.
We are still unsure where my f-i-law's brothers were born, but probably in what is now the Republic (he was born in Dublin). We still think that his mother died in Belfast. We think his father died in Londonderry. Like a good many other families it's something of a detective story and one answer prompts a different question.
Thanks again
Ellen
