Title: St Georges church
Post by: BJK on Tuesday 11 January 11 22:34 GMT (UK)
Hello everyone,
I am seeking information on St Georges Parish church (Church of Ireland), Dublin. I need to know where this Church is located within Dublin, is it even still there?
Several of my ancestors were baptised in the Church in the mid to late 1800's. Also does it have a graveyard attched to it, and if it doesnt i am keen to find were my ancestors may be buried. can you tell me the names of the main cemeteries in dublin.
Many Thanks in advance for your help.
William

There's a St. George's Church of Ireland still in Dublin but not sure if it ever had a burial ground- most city churches don't-

recent photo of the the Church on this page : link (http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php/topic,474177.msg3340972.html#msg3340972)

The building is no longer a church, and the parish of St. George was amalgamated with St. Thomas.

I understand the burial ground/cemetery associated with St George's is in Whitworth Road, Drumcondra. The burial register is held at the RCB  Library who I believe charge about €10 for a burial look-up.
