Title: Please help w/Clooney parish - Quigley/McNamara
Post by: Chicabee on Saturday 16 April 05 23:29 BST (UK)

I just received a death cert. of my g-grandpa: James J Quigley, b. Oct 29, 1871, and was able to confirm his parents' names. 

Can you please tell me how to contact Clooney parish to try and obtain certificates or information they have? Or, do you have any other guidance?

This is info I was given from a Clare look-up list:
Andrew Quigley m. Eliza Macnamara on 29 jan 1861 in Clooney RC Parish,
Co.Clare.
Children were: Martin 09 Nov 1861, Michael 01 Oct 1864, Patrick 04 Sep 1866 and James 03 Oct 1869.

The parents match those listed on the death cert for James, but his birth date is 2 yrs off. I feel this is most likely a match.

Thank you for any help offered. ;D ;D ;D

Hi,

You should post on the Clare board! But check this link for all the RC parishes in Co Clare. http://scripts.ireland.com/ancestor/browse/counties/rcmaps/clarerc.htm They link to a description of the start dates of each parishes records.

Did you also look in the IGI database on familysearch.org?
