Well glounthaune church is the parish church and even still all confirmations are still done there for the parish, the date is wrote down for others who were confirmed, the woman in the office said that another church is supposed to inform the church of baptism when they are confirmed but it wasn't always done, there was I think one other other entry that had a confirmation from outside the parish recorded in the book, so she wasn't confirmed in the parish she grew up in at all!!  There is a church I must check to see if there are any records for my grandmother yet..
