Belfast, County Down
« on: Thursday 18 June 15 17:50 BST (UK) »
My ancestor was married in Rostrevor in 1883. On the 1891 and 1901 censi (England), his birthplace is given as County Down. I have recently found him on crew lists,and on these his place of birth is given as Belfast,part of which is in County Down.
I am eagerly awaiting the 8th of next month when many records will be made available.As these will be searchable by Parish, I am at a loss to know which Parishes I should be searching. I have Googled for this information,but am non the wiser!
Can anyone help?
Thank you in advance.

This is a link for Co Down RC parishes.
  Is that the denomination of the person for which you are searching?

Thank you for your prompt reply. My problem is that I am trying to find those Parishes which are in Belfast and also in County Down as I think there will be little point in searching in that part of Belfast which is in Antrim.

Thank you. The person I am looking for is Thomas Fearon. He was born about 1858 and his father was Matthew (a farmer) .I am interested in finding his baptism which may give his mother's name.

Hi,
   I cannot find the information myself but the Ros Davies site gives the same information which you gave and it gives the e-mail address of the person who supplied the information. You may get more assistance here. See http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~rosdavies/SURNAMES/F/Fearon.htm

Thank you both. I supplied the information on the Ros Davies site.
When the records are released by The National Library next month, they will have to be searched by parish.I do not know which parishes would be the best ones for me to search as I cannot find out which ones are in both Belfast and County Down.
