hi hope this is nt a dumb question but i ve been looking up on the NLI registers, i was looking for deaths cobh from the mid to late 1800 s, but there are no records of any deaths from there at all, does that mean they re lost, not been digitalized etc ??
i ve found many BMD s of my relatives from ballymacoda in midleton parish records from before ballymacoder,ladysbridge records started in 1835, so was wondering if there was any way cobh records may be in another near parish and if so what one, or is this just wishful thinking lol, thanks

Queenstown (now called Cobh) is in two civil parishes- Clonmel & Templerobin but both parts in Cork poor law union/registration district. See Irish Genealogy for civil records (births, death & Catholic marriages from 1864, non-Catholic marriages, including registry office ones, from 1845)

R.C. Parishes often have different names & boundaries. In general it was usually the Church of Ireland who kept burial registers so finding deaths/burials recorded in other denominations is hit or miss.
Here's the online registers for Cobh R.C. Parish (you can use the map to find adjoining parishes)-

If you scroll down the page and click on link to 'Irish Ancestors' you'll see that there don't seem to be burial records for the parish-
