Hi, Although there was a fire, a lot of documents are still out there. Most catholic records will still be with the parish churches. If you know where they were born in Tipperary it might be worth while writing to the catholic church in that area to see if they hold any information. I would advise to enclose a donation of about 30 euros and they will send you back what they have, although you may have to wait about 6 weeks. I have done this and received a lot of information I didn't know and it got me back another 2 generations. |
