Presbyterian Parish records of Banagher

[jjl1329]

Is there any informaton from the the registers of the Presbyterian Parish of Banagher readily available. I would like to find records of the DUDDY families there

PRONI (and Coleraine Library) have some records microfilmed for Banagher Presbyterian Church (Presbyterian churches aren't same as parish churches)-
Births 1834-1984; Marriages 1845-1920; membership register Banagher Temperance Association 1857-1900

I dont consider that "readily available" How in the world does one get information from them, without going there.
I am in florida, USA, and have no intention of leaving this area.

The records are not online so I have given you 2 sources where they are available. Are you sure it's Banagher Presbyterian Church records that you need? LDS have microfilmed some Irish church records but these do not seem to be in their online catalogue.

Hi,
   Yes, some records are readily available. I have had a quick look and all the Duddy records for Banagher are births and marriages in the Roman Catholic church. There is one Presbyterian marriage in the parish of Dungiven but the majority of Presbyterian marriages are in the Parish of Tamlaght Finlagan.
Regards

Several gravestones in Banagher Presbyterian Churchyard (although fairly recent)-

Older burials may have taken place in Parish (Church of Ireland) burying ground.
