This is probably to the moderator but maybe you guys in general can answer this or make suggestions:

We all know that this forum is going to be inundated with questions re the registers and I reckon the threads will be all over the place.

Does anyone think, in time, it might be a good idea to set up individual boards for each church ie Dublin would have a seperate board for each of it's churches and so on for each county where people could answer on their experiences of reading the records for that church.

I just worry that otherwise we will keep getting asked the same questions over and over ie How far do the records for this church go back, how recent are the records, how legible are the records, what extra info is on the register, missing years etc etc etc

Anyone think this is a good idea or am I overthinking it ?

Even if one did that people will just come on here and post. How many even look at the Resources Board to even find out what is available?

Many don't even look kin up on Census so others have to do it for them or say they found them on Census but won't say where or post the link!

Many say they have this record but won't say what are the details on it.... in fact many just post and then let others do the work for them!  and many expect that!!

It's excellent that these are now available but I fear there will be disappointment at the state of the records and the years covered.

Have you posted your query on this family on a board here ?

Tara

Hi Tara, no as I have so little to go on. Will see if the new records throw anything up and if nothing then I'll post on here (maybe the surnames are popular in certain areas :) )
