Catholic Church in Capparanny
« on: Wednesday 29 July 09 15:59 BST (UK) »
Hello,

Can anyone tell me the Catholic Church that Capparanny would come under?

I think its The Holy Family Church, but i'm not sure.

Many thanks

Claire

From the townland database (www.thecore.com/seanruad) it seems Capparanny is in the Civil and Catholic Parish of Turlough

see the Parish details on the Irish Times website at : http://www.rootschat.com/links/06sp/

if you click the 'Click here for a listing of placenames within this parish. ' link - the list includes the townland of Capparanny.

and a map of the parishes : http://www.rootschat.com/links/06sq/

Thank you!  Sorry I didn't make myself clear...

I want someone to confirm the name of the church so I can then try to find out the address so i can write to the Parish Priest.

I thought the name of the parish might assist with finding the correct church.

Sorry i wasn't being funny. 

I'm just not sure if its called The Church of the Holy family or the Holy Family church - if there is any difference.

The parish is Turlough/Parke RC and I have seen the church down as just the RC Chapel Parke on some message boards so i am a bit confused.

it might be worth just addressing a letter to something like The Parish Priest, Turlough Parish...

everybody in the area (including the postman I hope) will probably know the right person to deliver it to.

Hi,

I have just found this...

Rev. Gerry Needham, C.C.
Parochial House,
Parke,
Castlebar,
Co. Mayo.
(093)35448

It appears Rev. Karl Burns is in Galway not Mayo....not sure if this info is old!
