...
Thats a shame - you must determine the specific parish or townland from which your ancestor came  - obviously made difficult, primarily due ...... disastrous 1922 fire in the Ireland Public Record Office, which nearly obliterated civil records.
...

not true, but a common enough mis-understanding...

no civil BMD records were damaged in any way during the events of the civil war and they are fully intact. The records destroyed included census records, and Church of Ireland parish records. Catholic records were unharmed as these were not considered state records (Church of Ireland was..) so had not been sent to Dublin for safe keeping.

Only quote from research material I may have read. Hence:-

Index to Irish Civil BMD records is available on familysearch - see : link

This covers BMDs from the start of civil registration - 1864 for births and deaths, from 1845 for non-Catholic marriages (e.g. Church of Ireland, registry office etc), and 1864 on for all marriages. Certs can be ordered from the GRO using the index references.

Knowing the district or county can be a great help in narrowing down the search for civil records, especially with common names. For earlier details parish records are required, and to research these the essential details are the family religion, and as detailed a location as you can establish - ideally parish or townland.

Hi Shane,

I am sure Seamiuse will look at the links if he has'nt already.  This has been an ongoing project for him for some considerable time and he had many pieces on forums etc.,

This thread will perhaps explain the information Seamuise would currently like - which at the moment is "live"

That thread now locked and any replies can be posted here to avoid duplication.

The closest possibility I see for John Broderick's baptism is this one :

   Baptism of John Broder of Knockanassig - 20 May 1866    (from www.irishgenealogy.ie)
  
It could be a mistranscribed surname.. or a variation of Broderick.
Father's name is Daniel and the baptism is about a week after the date of birth you have. The parish is Listowel / RC (Kerry)

On the same website there's also a marriage of the parents for that  John Broder :

 Marriage of Daniel Broder and Ellen Buckley - 28 February 1865

The records for that parish at the time are very basic, and there's no parents, and just the date, witnesses and a single residence/townland included.

Just for the record... this is driving me bonkers. So many dates, discrepancies and people I'm losin it. Can't keep it all straight  lol.

There is such an age difference in between the
information provided by anna ( his wife)on the death cert. when her husband dies in 1936 .... and that of the census information. What, whoever was giving the info for the census was bonkers? in 1920, 30 and (I found the 1900 but only one child is listed (john) the information for him matches correctly but John and anna's are like 7 yrs off?

What would YOU go by, death cert information  of whats on the census?
Notice the years of immigration are very different on every census.... ouch, who's got a tylenol?  lol
