Coleraine Library (and PRONI) have microfilm for 1st Dunboe, 2nd Dunboe and St. Paul's church of Ireland, Dunboe.

Thanks aghadowey.

Do they have all the records that are on the 1st Dunboe list in my message above?

The church records that Coleraine Library have on microfilm are copies of the same records from PRONI.

[OllieH]

Thanks both.

For your info., I have emailed Coleraine Library to see if they have copies for sale.
I have also had a look at the 1831 Dunboe census on Rootsweb - no McNerlins!

[aghadowey]

No- Coleraine Library will not be able to sell the microfilms- they are bought from PRONI by the Coleraine branch of the North of Ireland Family History Society, If you do wish to purchsed the church records you will have to contact PRONI (I believe you also have to get formal permission from the clergyman of the church but PRONI will explain the procedure).

PS- 1831 only lists head of household with numbers of males & females in household with a breakdown of religion Catholic, Established Church, Presbyterian, other.

Thanks Aghadowey.
My reading of the PRONI site is that they don't sell copies.

[aghadowey]

Not sure what present policy is at PRONI but they certainly did sell copies of the church microfilms at one time (can't remember how long ago it was) and people had to get permission of clergyman before PRONI would release the film.

OllieH,
I came across your post and thought the McNerlin name sounded familure. I have come across a James McNerland/McNerlin (hard to read) who was named as a witness at my great great grandfathers wedding in 1881. The Wedding took place in 1st Dunboe Presbyterian Church Articlave.
I not sure if there is any connection,but I'm hoping to get to the library in Coleraine soon so I 'll keep an eye out for the name.

Regards,

I will PM you with details of McNerlin's in the area that may or may not be of use to you.
