Can anyone tell me if there are any sites on the web that would contain records, pre 1840, of Irish ancestors especially from Dublin. I know that a fire destroyed most of the records in Ireland but is there a collection of maybe Parish or County records that could be accessed or were they all destroyed.

I would love to know this too Gary, pre 1800 Dublin plus other areas.

Any ideas gratefully received, thanks
