The starting date of the  registers depends on the Parish.. some start as early as 1747, most start in the late 1700s / early 1800s.

A couple start much later - e.g. Greystones starts in 1855, Aughrim in 1868.

Welcome news, and I'll look forward to the CofI records arriving, but I wonder why there are no marriage records or any note to say that there will be?
