Hi folks,
Yeah I did find the records on
www.irishgenealogy.ie . The amazing thing about this site, I think, is that you can see the actual entry in the church register.
Suzy , you seem to have had a lot of the information yourself which was a great help. As Shane said civil records only started in 1864 so any birth, marriages or death records were held in the churches.
It would be entirely up to yourself if you felt it would be worth getting them.
As Frank mentioned go into
www.irishgenealogy.ie then key in the surname Huggins and place Cork
and you get 294 baptisms and 58 marriages. You can narrow the search by putting in the christian name also. You might find even more ancestors!!!
Interestingly for the baptisms of Catherine and John Huggins their addresses are given. Did all of this family emigrate to Australia or might some of them have stayed in Ireland? You could even have some living relations still in Cork.
At least you have confirmed some of the information you already have which is a bonus.
