The Irish Government BDM website

https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/civil-search.jsp

has 3 stages to it as per attachment

even if you only put  Surname   and  Clones  as District  you get them for that Surname

those with Returns Page No  don't have Images yet but one can check back every now and then to see if any have been updated even once every 6 months!


If one knows the names from a Marriage e.g.  "about 1870"  just put Name in, Tick Marriage box and use Year Range 1868 to 1872  leaving District  blank if unknown!

The Captcha and Sign in page are all part of process the Irish Government BDM website and do not take anyone to any other website!

Because the Surname has a few variations in spelling I did a search as follows using only Ridd* on

https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/civil-search.jsp

and   http://www.rootschat.com/links/01o8m/   will bring you to these.


You will need to solve Captcha and sign in!

____________________________

With 7 Registration Districts for Co Monaghan one needs to know these and they can be found on

https://www.swilson.info/regdistmap.php  and Select the County from first dropdown box and note them.



Then change Clones   to one of the others and Search  them.

Hello from Canada, I am the Great Granddaughter of George Alexander Knight solicitor from Clones. He was affectionately referred to as "Buckie" by my mother who was the first child of Nora Isabell Knight who married Douglas Kenneth McMinn. My mother Nancy Creina Marshall nee McMinn often spoke of her family and their house in The Diamond and after at Trim Co:Meath. Are there any Knights still living in Clones or in Trim. I know some cousins lived in Dunmurry just outside Belfast. Anne Elliott, Buckie's wife has an interesting lineage back to the Fitzgeralds and the the Norman Conquest.
