CLONTARF BMD records

[MAD87]

It was my cousin who told me Clontarf wasn’t in the NLI release . I didn’t check then, but I have now. I have been to Roots many times over the years and have picked up several records, notably my Downes gg-grandparents’ marriage in 1817 (Booterstown) and the birth of most of their children in Clontarf.
I note that the Irish Times lists a ‘Database printout’ at the NAI Is this something one can obtain, or is a physical visit to the archives necessary?

The Downes on Howth Road near Harry Byrnes?

I don't know the north side of Dublin, let alone Clontarf. My parents (from Ballsbridge & Stillorgan) kidnapped me as a baby and removed me to foreign parts. I now live in even foreigner parts, so I have to keep referring to maps or relying on cousins to put me right....

The gg-grandparents lived until at least 1840 in or around Clontarf where 6 of the 7 children were born (Seafield Avenue and Black Quarry in 2 cases, the rest just 'Clontarf'. One son died young and his address is Killester according to the Glasnevin records.

I'll be posting separately about the 'Misses Downes' who owned property in the area and whom I want to eliminate.
