The Catholic parish records are now available online thanks to the National Library of Ireland: registers.nli.ie

Problem is that you need to know the exact parish where your ancestors lived...and the pages are not always easy to read.

I have an Irish ancestor whose date of birth I know, but I don't know where she was born and her surname is a very common one, so I have not managed to locate her yet. Maybe if I spend enough time on it I will find her.

Thanks, I have used the above site, but even though I know from US records that my ggGrandfather was born in 1829, I have no clue of the month and day. That makes finding him impossible.
