Title: Dromin Parish
Post by: caswellm on Sunday 01 October 06 22:14 BST (UK)

Is there a cemetery with the Dromin parish church?  If so, have the grave markers been recorded and indexed?  Also, where are the parish records of births/marriages/deaths for the period of 1760 to 1860? Thank you.  Marilyn

Dromin Parish joined the "United Parishes of Collon, Mosstown and Dromin" in 1782 and the records for the parish are with those of Collon. There is a separate register for Dromin from 1847-1863 (Source: Canon Leslie's "Armagh Clergy and Parishes" 1911). The names I have given you already, two children of Robert and Alicia Wynne, were actually from that separate register from Dromin Parish. There was one other Wynne in another register from 1871, details of which I will email to you. There are no other separate Dromin registers extant. There is a large graveyard at Dromin but it has been neither recorded nor indexed. Brendan
